Dealing with Childhood Issues
February 14, 2008 |
Unless you face the issues of childhood, they affect your thoughts and self-discipline. This world is not fair. You can’t change that, but you can choose to live life to its fullest. You can take the good and leave the bad. Bad things happen to everyone. No one has a perfect childhood or perfect parents. You may feel shame, guilt, anger or resentment over what happened in your childhood, but you can let it go. You can accept the pain. The pain is real. You were hurt. Grieve the loss and move on to your future.
The past is unchangeable. Accept what has happened to you. Forgive, then make the decision not to let the past control your life. Yes, people have hurt you. Be glad that you are not like those people. We each reap the seeds that we sow. They will reap their seed, and you will reap yours. Be glad you are a kind person in spite of the abuse. You have become a better person, deeper, more compassionate, with more understanding. Encourage yourself, for you have come a long way!
Change how you think, and you will change how you feel. Events are not destroying your happiness, but the negative thoughts about you are destroying it. You have a distorted image of yourself. You may believe that you deserved being hurt because you were so bad. Because you were treated like garbage, you believe that you were garbage. That is a lie. You are worthy of love. There is so much good inside you.
You are a kind, loving person, and if people reject that, they have lost a good friend.
You have built walls to hide behind. Walls that scream, “stay away, do not hurt me.” It is time to take those walls down. You do not have to be ashamed of who you are. You don’t have to defend yourself any more. You have the power to say no, to make your own decisions. You are in control of your life.
If you need encouragement, encourage yourself. If you need love, dwell on your heavenly Father’s love for you. If you need courage, think of God’s faithfulness to you. If you need peace, give your life to God and let go. You have everything you need to be happy.
Your past is not your future. Each day is a brand new page. Take a chance. Live dangerously. Risk failure. Risk being you. Risk living life to its fullest. Haven’t you had enough of being controlled, beaten and disheartened? How many more years do you want to endure defeat? The decision is yours. Time to download new information into the subconscious and run a program that gets results. We call it God’s freeware.
