Continuing with the options
for what you can do with your hurt:
If you
want to let go of your hurt, you must let GOD settle the score. If somebody’s hurt you, let GOD handle
it. Who do you think could do a better
job at getting even?
1)
Repress it.
2)
Rehearse it.
3)
Resent it.
Another
option is to 4) Release it. Release the hurt to GOD.
And what
does that mean?
Romans
12.19 (LB), “Dear friends, never avenge
yourselves. Leave that to GOD, for HE
has said HE will repay those who deserve it.”
And aren't you glad that verse is in the Bible?
If you
want to let go of your hurt, you must let GOD settle the score. If somebody’s hurt you, let GOD handle
it. Who do you think could do a better
job at getting even?
The
hurts that hurt the most are those that are out of our control. Someone did something to us that we couldn't control
and they hurt us and it’s out of our control.
But it’s not out of GOD’s control.
Give it to GOD.
Never forget
that GOD is aware of everything people do to you. Everything. The Bible says HE’s keeping a record.
Read
Psalm 10, the Victims Psalm, “LORD, there’s those guys out there and they’re
hurting people and they’re hurting the helpless and they’re taking advantage of
others. They say, ‘What the hey, GOD’s
not watching, I can do whatever I want to and get away with it.’ They’re bowling people over and destroying
lives and then saying GOD doesn’t care, GOD doesn’t see it.”
But in
Psalm 10 it says, “But YOU, O GOD, do
see the hurt, the grief and the pain and YOU will call that person into
judgment and avenge the helpless and the victims.”
Leave
it in GOD’s hands and let GOD be GOD and fight your battles. HE can do a better job of it than you can.
Just a
thought from the front porch…
