I’ve had some hard situations arise in my life the past week and the weight of it was seemingly unbearable. I write to live and I live to write,which truly is my saving grace at times. Last night I tried to go to church but when I got inside (after driving around for 30 minutes), I just couldn’t stay. My godfather who was murdered, was a Christian and we attended the same church, so knowing he will never come was a bit much. However, this morning while praying and just curling up in Gods lap, I realized my issue….UNFORGIVENESS.
I hadn’t forgave the individuals who took my godfathers life, I hadn’t forgave the negative people surrounding the situation. I hadn’t forgave a lot of folks. As I began to say the names of people and what I forgive them for doing, I began to feel a cloud/weight come off of me. I have allowed God to change my heart and give me strength. Grief is still there but the heaviness I had been under is gone.
I know everyone who reads my blogs is not a Christian but I want to say this….
If I didn’t know Jesus Christ the son of the living God, my life would be in shambles. That relationship has given me strength when I was weak,healing when I was hurting, and joy when I had sorrow.
Thank you for your support and more than anything, for your prayers.
Much love,

In order to move forward, it truly does begins and ends with FORGIVENESS that’s when the healing begins.
