In Life
Vintage Dilbert
December 27, 1989
In life there are people that will hurt us and cause us pain,
but we must learn to forgive and forget and not hold grudges.
In life there are mistakes we will make,
but we must learn from our wrongs and grow from them.
In life there are regrets we will have to live with,
but we must learn to leave the past behind and realize it is something we can’t change.
In life there are people we will loose forever and can’t have back,
but we must learn to let go & move on.
In life there are going to be obstacles that will cause interference,
but we must learn to overcome these challenges and grow stronger.
In life there are fears that will hold us back from what we want,
but we must learn to fight them with the courage from within.
God holds our lives in his hands. He holds the key to our future.
Only he knows our fate.
He see’s everything and knows everything.
Everything in life really does happen for a reason: “God’s Reason”.

Unfortunately all those things we usually need to learn from experience. Hearing it from others doesn’t always work

This is much easier to say, read and even hear than to put into action. Jesus most definitely had to deal with the same, as well as his earthly parents, his disciples and people through the ages to our current day, such as Nelson Mandela. Therefore, I have to strive towards this level of forgiveness…It is an achievable state…aaah! Now I have to add that it’s easier to write too 🙂

Great post; not easy lessons to learn, however.
The Scriptures do say, however, (from Romans 5 – I’m paraphrasing): the trial of our faith works patience, and patience builds experience, and experience builds hope. By placing our hope in Christ we can indeed move forward.

The hardest people to forgive are those who have hurt our children; especially those who prey on the innocence and vulnerability of our children. But we really have no choice – if we can’t do it for the offender’s sake, then we must do it for our own because our Heavenly Father asks it of us.

The first thing Jesus told us to do is: Seed ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness! The reason that people hurt us, and we hurt back is, is havn’t done what Jesus told us to do. The kingdom of God, and His plan is a spiritual plan. Part of the creation is Satn and demons, and their place in His plan. The wages of sin is death! To say it another way is, the wages of sin is to have a demon come into our life because of sin. We were born sinners by Adam and Eve, Jesus died that He might show us how to take off sin. When people hurt us, it is not them, but a demon that is there to hurt us and them. If we do not know how to release that person through prayer, we hold that demon by choosing to not pray and letting God have it. WE must learn how to pray and release the hurt to God and say, Father forgive them for they know not what they do. And when we find that we have hurt others, ask that person to forgive you! Matthew 5:23-26. the prison is a demon in this scripture & Matthew 18:21-33.Mark 11:26 If you do not forgive, neither will your heavenly Father forgive you of your trepasses! To forgive someone for what they have done is faith! To know why is understanding!

God promises his protection from bad things when we put our trust in Him! Psalms 91, but if we are in the wrong, God will chastise us for the wrong we have done. This is why we are to be not conformed to this world, but be ye tranformed by the renewing of your mind that we might know what is that good, acceptible, and perfect will of God is Romans 12:1-3. The devil wants us to go out before your ready, so you will fail when trails and persecutioncome, because of the word, by and by he is offended.Matthew 13:21.
