We’ve all had things happen to us. We’ve all had bad situations occur. But after it’s over, do you move on from it or do you hold on to it? Have you forgiven the person that hurt you? Have you let go of the bad memories of the past? What are you holding on to?
God can do more with it than we can. In Psalm 55:22 David tells us, “Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.” In Matthew 11:28, Jesus tells us, “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” If you’ve ever given anything to the Lord, then you know how much peace you feel afterward. It’s so freeing and you will soon be able to move on. It’s not easy nor is it quick. But trust me, if you take the first step I promise God will do the rest.
