Wow! When I saw this quote, I paused and reflected on the profound truth of this simple statement!
I spent 15 years in my first marriage.
Trying to earn forgiveness.
Trying to seek a way to rectify my mistakes from the past.
Trying to hide from the truths I had willingly shared with someone I never thought would try to use these truths against me!
How freeing these words seem to me now!
I am free to forgive his unforgiveness!
Does that even make sense?
It does to me!
It allows a person to go on with their life.
It allows one to allow room for human error.
Yes I have battled with trust issues.
Trusting again was very hard in the beginning.
I don't think I can ever trust another human being on the level I innocently did in my first marriage.
I was young, naive, and very misguided on the whole subject of Christianity.
I have discovered there are some Christians you can trust with these truths from your past.
And then there are others that will pick up your grave clothes that you just shed...
and throw them back in your face.
Not the picture of God's Grace I pictured every Christian possessing!
Yes I am a work in progress.
God isn't finished with me yet.
Thank Goodness!
