A new day comes upon me and has been much better than previous days. I did get off the couch today and make some progress around the house, it did make me feel a bit better.
This morning was kinda hard though, my mom called me and we were talking about thanksgiving and such and I just started crying. She then of course wants to know what is wrong and I refuse to tell her. I told her that maybe in time I would, but I just wasn't ready right now. I so much just wanted to belt out everything that is burdening my heart, but as much as I love her, I don't think that she could give the closure or advice that I need. We did talk about some things in the bible and I so wanted them to relate to my specific problems, but none of them did. I keep reading about forgiveness in the bible and it just says forgive forgive forgive. Even forgiving 77 times.
21 Then Peter approaching asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?”22* Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.
That just seems crazy to me, does Jesus forgive us that many times? I have read so much on forgiveness over the past 2+ weeks and still have no clue on how to forgive. Eventually I know I will learn but right now I just can't figure it out. Well until next time..........
