Forgiveness Isn’t Always Easy

It’s hard to forgive someone who continues to hurt you over and over again. It’s easy to get caught up in anger when you are suffering because of someone else’s decisions. The injustice of the situation makes forgiveness seem daunting. Why should you forgive someone who is continually hurting you without a second thought? I’ve found myself wrestling with this question time and time again. You may feel as if this person doesn’t deserve your forgiveness; that by forgiving them you are saying that what they did was ok. This is not what forgiveness is about. While it may be … Continue reading →

You have to look at your overall health and this is where forgiveness comes in. Consider what … Continue reading →

Forgiveness

When I first got divorced I couldn’t dream of ever forgiving my ex. I was incredibly hurt and was suffering consequences for decisions that I had no part of.

I was walking around with this weight on my shoulders that was preventing me from feeling any kind of real happiness in my life. I truly wanted to find happiness again, but I soon realized that I would never be able to fully … Continue reading →

Forgiveness

My mother and her ex husband had one of those nasty drawn out divorces. It took four years before it was finalized and they were in court constantly. After going through my own divorce, which went rather smoothly and was finalized in six weeks, it was hard for me to imagine what she had gone through. It was a time she wishes she could erase from her memory. How she was able to go on day after day is beyond me, but somehow she did it. There has been very little contact between them since. When Kent comes to pick … Continue reading →

Learning to Forgive Ourselves

Yesterday I blogged about my terrible morning and how I sent my youngest son off to school crying. It was helpful to receive some feedback that I am not alone. It was also helpful when later that morning I made a trip to the beauty salon. I find the beauty salon to be therapeutic. Of course, it helps that my hair stylist happens to be my friend and I have been going to her for nearly 17 years now. As soon as I walked in the door she knew something was wrong. I spilled it all out and guess what? … Continue reading →

Can You Forgive?

Forgiveness, it’s a word we often hear in church. In fact, we hear about forgiveness every time we say the Lord’s Prayer. But how much notice do we take of it? Or do we skim over that bit?

Our minister gave a great talk last week and the theme was forgiveness. It is something that is sadly needed in our marriages, in our relationships with family … Continue reading →

Ask a Marriage Blogger – Leading Causes of Divorce

A good friend of mine is getting married shortly, and she’s had a number of questions about marriage and how to cultivate a good relationship with her new husband. As we’ve conversed, she’s given me permission to share some of her questions, and my answers, with you. Q. What are the leading causes of divorce? A.

When my daughter was in the hospital, she had so many tubes going in and out of her it was hard to tell which tube was doing what. At one point, the quantity of IVs became so great that the doctors recommended that a PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) be inserted. The IV is really long. It gets inserted in a peripheral vein, but it is advanced until it almost reaches the patients heart. A PICC line has many advantages. First, it can remain inserted for up to thirty days whereas traditional IVs must be replaced after only a few … Continue reading →
