Hello Beautiful Brides, this morning I want to share a bit more on something I have touched on in my Forgiveness Part 2 Podcast and that He just placed in my heart this morning.  I shared how He gave me understanding regarding things that happened in my parents childhood and caused them a lot of pain later on in life. But this morning He led me back to Erinâs podcast wLL80 âSeeing Shadowsâ.
And He is leading me to share a bit more about how He changed my heart to love the unloveable and dealing with others in a understanding way. On my journey to become His bride, it is something He really blessed me with, and that is to look at somebody that is acting in a bad way or lashing out, or even those who hurt us, in an understanding way.
I used to judge people very quickly and treat them accordingly, when I received bad service or when I saw somebody reacting in a bad way, but even worse, when somebody did me wrong. I would harbour hatred in my heart toward them, brewing about what they did to me and how dare they? What gives them the right to do this to me or treat me this way? I used to be such a judgemental Pharisee, judging others and not looking at myself and how I react to situations.
But my dear sweet Heavenly Husband started to change my heart regarding loving the unloveable in a remarkable way. It happened at the beginning of my journey, while I was still battling with lots of flashbacks and forgiveness. I was on my knees struggling with a situation that happened, giving it to my Heavenly Husband, I was angry and hurt, I wanted to hate the people involved, the people that hurt me so badly. But then I heard Him say in a soft, still voice: âWhen my son hanged on the cross, did He love the people that were mocking Him, that beat Him, that put the nails through His hands and feet?â It blew me away, and I knew in that moment, that it doesnât matter what anybody does to us, or how they treat us, or how unfriendly the service is you receive, we must love the unloveable, treat them with kindness and bless them instead.
Since that day He changed my heart completely, not just toward people that hurt me, but also toward people giving you bad service or is just being unfriendly. Understanding that they too carry hurt and pain, had a bad day or have something going on in their lives that cause them to react that way or do what they are doing. To bless them instead of treating them badly in return or judging them. And it changed my live completely, knowing that I am His epistle reflecting His love. You never know how your smile or friendly, understanding reaction might affect that person that day, or how forgiving and giving a blessing instead might turn a situation around.
Sin duda nuestro dulce esposo nos cambia de adentro hacia afuera y que podamos mostrar quien vive dentro.
Es hermoso como Ă©l nos lleva de las tinieblas a la luz y a mostrar su amor aĂșn a aquellos que aveces nos resultan difĂciles. Estar desbordantes de amor sin duda es algo que alcanza a muchos mĂĄs. Gracias a nuestro amado celestial por su gran amor y fidelidad derramada en nuestras vidas y corazones.
From the inside out and that we can show who lives inside.
It is beautiful how he takes us from the darkness to the light and to show his love even to those who sometimes find it difficult for us. Being overflowing with love is undoubtedly something that reaches many more. Thank you to our heavenly beloved for his great love and fidelity poured out in our lives and hearts.
Sometimes He doesn’t change the situation, but He changes us, He changes our hearts and that makes all the difference! Once He changed your heart, the storm van continue brewing around us, He got us and we van stay hidden in Him đđ
Dear Adina, thank you so much, I love when you share on forgiveness, it helps me so much.
Dear Adina,
Thank you for sharing! I struggle with this exact same area. I asked myself, how do you love others unconditionally when they are unlovable? It’s a similar question when I asked myself, why did I pursue a man who didn’t treat me right when I have HH who never forsakes me? And I go on to ask myself – what’s wrong with me and how do I change? It’s thru asking these questions that I seek the guidance from the Lord and allow him to transform me. Some days I still don’t feel it but I know I just need to keep on seeking the Lord. He will answer. May we all find him.
“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” Matthew 7:7
Deat Gioia, He is the only one who can help us with His infinite love and grace to get to a place that we are able to totally forgive and love the unlovable. In our flesh we are not able to get to a point where we can do it, we need Him to do it through us.
Dear Adina, thank you so much! I really needed do read it this morning! Yesterday I listened to your forgiveness series, it was so special for me!! Thank youđ«¶
I am not sure if the video uploaded here is correct, because it only has 6 seconds…
Thank you, Paula, I added the video again. PTL if it helped you Paula, our journeys are never without purpose, and we never know when our testimonies are exactly what someone else needed to hear \o/\o/.
