Some one has hurt you

Maybe yesterday

Maybe many yesterdays ago

You know you should forigve yet

you say, how could they do that?

So the hurt stays hidden

It is like a hard rock in your heart

You think it is safely tucked away and

then something or some one triggers it again

You ask how long will this go on?

When will it end?

The advice I can give is

something I have used

As long as you stay hurt and angry

they will always have control over you

They will have long ago forgotten

yet for you it will still remain

Remember the times in your

life when you may have been

angry at someone?

That must havde been

what they were feeling

when they hurt you

The same coldness they had

is in everyone, we have a choice

in how we handle that side of us

That  day their choice was

extremely inappropriate,but see

if you can forgive them

That will be healing in two ways

Even though you don't condone what

they did you realize as humans we have

that dark side to us

It also forgives yourself for when

you have felt angry at someone

You realize how harmful it can

be, and can make a vow

to listen carefully to your

heart and the love you have for Jesus

before you say or do something that might

be harmful for someone else

Then true healing can begin
