Breakthru

Last night on my way home from a shopping trip to Home Depot and Target, with my sister, a song came on the radio... Tenth Avenue North - Losing. I sang the words as loud as possible while praying. I need to take into my heart the words of the song.

I was told to "flush the shit."  I used to be amazing at forgiveness, I let bitterness take over and I really want to flush it.

I decided last night with the help of the songs lyrics to truly let go, and let God. God is always there to help it is us who forget to take our troubles to him and to honestly give them to him to handle. We aren't always strong enough to do it alone.

Take a moment - read these lyrics, take them into your heart, let go of the bitter you are holding. Forgiveness doesn't always help the one who hurt you, it will however make you feel better.

Because like the song says, without forgiveness you will feel like the one losing! Let go... it's okay.

Tenth Avenue North - Losing:

I can't believe what she said
I can't believe what he did
Oh, don't they know it's wrong?
Don't they know it's wrong?

Well maybe there's something I missed
But how could they treat me like this?
It's wearing out my heart
The way they disregard

Oh, Father won't You forgive them?
They don't know what they've been doin' (oh no)
Oh, Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losin'

It's only the dead that can live
But still I wrestle with this
To lose the pain that's mine
Seventy times seven times

Lord it doesn't feel right
For me to turn a blind eye
But I guess it's not that much
When I think of what You've done.
This is love. This is hate.
We've got a choice to make

Why do we think that hate's gonna change their heart?
We're up in arms over wars that don't need to be fought
But pride won't let us lay our weapons on the ground
We build our bridges up, but just to burn them down
We think pain is owed apologies and them it'll stop
But truth be told it doesn't matter if they're sorry or not
Freedom comes when we surrender to the sound
Of Mercy and Your Grace, Father, send Your angels down (singin')

Oh, Father, won't you forgive them?
They don't know what they've been doing (oh, no)
Oh, Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losing
I feel like I've been losing

Oh, Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losin'
