Since I've been reading this book called " The Power Of Forgiveness " and also notice some people putting the blame on God....I thought I would share some of you what I've read in this book and I hope it helps each of you to understand instead of putting the blame on God....
" Many people have problems of unforgiveness toward God. Those who have never experienced that feeling may not understand it. But those who have know what it is to feel animosity toward God because they blame Him for cheating them out of something important in their lives. Things have not worked out the way they had planned. They firgure that God could have changed things if He had wanted to, but since He didn't , they feel disappointed and blame Him for their situation.
If you are holding on to this attitude, you know it is impossible to have fellowship with someone you are mad at. If so, the only answer is to forgive God. Of Course, God does not need to be forgiven! But such heart honesty can break the bondage and restore the fellowship that has been broken with the Lord.
Often we think if we knew why certain things happened to us, we would be satisfied. I believe God tells us only what we really need to know, what we are prepared to handle, and what will not harm us, but will, in fact , help us. We must learn to trust God and not try to figure out everything in life.
There must come a time when we stop living in the past and asking why. Instead, we must learn to let God turn our scars into stars...."
Why we must forgive?
" Jesus taught us that we are to forgive those who hurt us, to pray for those who despitefully use us, That is hard, But there is something harder --being full of hatred, bitterness and resentment..."
I know all too much about this, I was sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abused from the time I can remember until I left home at the age of 18...I have been rejected, abandoned, betrayed, and divorced. I know what it means to hurt....and I thank God that He has shown me how to recover.... Wounded emotions can become a prison that locks us into our pain and keep others out. Perhaps you are in the condition in life where I was, an emotional prisoner, It's a bitter, resentful, angry prison cell, and forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door that holds us there...
Do you think it is time to let go of whatever happens in the past and forgive those who hurt us? and Do you think it time to stop blaming God for all the problems you are having in the past to now that's inculding losing your hearing?...
