Holding on to the hurt will only harm you, it's a decision you have to make! So go ahead exhale, and release forgiveness (Mathew 6:12-15)
I pray this blesses your spirit as much as it has blessed mine.

Growing with God
Firstly I am going to highlight the story of Joseph, for those who are not very familiar with this story: CHECK: Genesis 37
One thing I have learnt from his story is that, He didn't fight the process but there was a lesson in every step and he was humble throughout. It was painful for him but the most important thing that was sufficient for him was in trust an faith in God.
I have learnt to handle every moment of my life with prayers because my life is fragile without God. I spend my time chit-chatting with my heavenly father and honestly I CAN explain the experience, it is PEACEFUL and REASSURING!
How? You may ask? (Hebrew 11:1)
Learning to depend on God means not running to people and having a pity party about yourself!
Their advice will not fill that void. The advice may work for that day but the next day what will you do? Run back to them again for advice? You need to LEARN to GROW by yourself and begin to love yourself in the process!
The arms that holds the universe is holding you, how can you honestly not be at peace with that??
You are a heir to the throne of the most high(GET TO KNOW YOURSELF through Christ) Pour your heart out to God because he knows everything you're going through, he is the only one that can listen to us without getting tired and understands us 100%!
It's funny a lot of us have that 1 friend whom we tell anything but here's a question - half of the things you tell this person, do you even tell God? Then when problem occur we say "oh God why didn't you show me this would happen?! News flash did you inform him when you made that particular decision? If you have a relationship with someone, you have to understand communication works both ways that's the same with God! You have to ask first, then he will instruct you. You can't do it, then ask him why he allowed that to happen. The BIG question is WHY didn't you tell him at first?

I don’t need you, but I still want you
Firstly I know this title is probably baffling to a lot of
you, but the Holy Spirit ministered this to me as I finished studying today. I was
getting up to enjoy my leisure time but in between this I was speaking boldness
into my life.
Don’t you find it funny that, God thugs on our heart and
tries to pull us nearer for our own sake, but then we keep running, and he sits
back and watch we act like we do not need
him then when we want something we want
him? The definite truth is we cannot choose when we want God, and when we don’t,
this will lead to frustration because God is not a genie that will pop out when
we want him to. Seeking the spirit without the word will not work as these two
cannot be separated, because they always work together in perfect harmony.
I find myself asking this question each day “Do I love God
because of what he does for me, or because of who he is?” (John 6:26-27). I am
grateful to the almighty that my answer is not in the department of what he
does for me.
I have learnt over the previous months, when you take time
away from God, you are inviting the devil to feed you his lies, and you
eventually fall into the trap of believing him, then we come running back to
God and asking “WHY?” I don’t know about you but I am terrified for the day God
will give me an answer to my many “WHY’s”. God should never be an option in/on
our menu, he should be THE MENU.
God has called us to be dependent on him for everything,
neediness is holy in the eyes of our heavenly father. In needing God we must
learn to totally surrender our pride and control so that God can then mold us
into the person he longs for us to be.
Shalom
Grace
