feel like giving up - pt 2

[S.T. _I Made It!]

oh, and you mentioned you need to see true remorse for what he has done. (this takes time as well, and it's more important to see actions that they are IN the M, than just words saying sorry)...

but also, are YOU ready to be truly remorseful for your part.

it doesn't take 1 person to mess things up, it takes 2. I'm trying to get you to see this, so that you are not so caught up in your bitterness against him. this isn't just about him hurting you. People hurt others because they have been hurt themselves. We MUST have compassion on them, and the goal is to love them as God loves them, and see them as God sees them.

Yes he has hurt you a lot, but you cannot feel his hurt. We cannot measure someone else's pain to our own because we can never live in their shoes, we will never know or understand how another person REALLY feels. So, depending on your desire...do you want to have a good M, with good communication, and it be with your H, or do you want to D.

if you want the D, then just quit. but if you want the M...start looking at your H with God's eyes, like he were the prodigal son that Jesus talks about. The son that was lost, left his home and wasted all his money playing, and when he lost everything he finally came back to his father and his father celebrated with a huge feast. His father did not become bitter and enraged at the wastefulness of his child, but he looked at him as a lost sheep that had finally been found.
