In this episode, 

You cannot continue moving forward while carrying the weight of yesterday's disappointments. You cannot ask God to elevate you while refusing to release the things that are keeping you emotionally and spiritually bound. You cannot spend your entire life rehearsing what someone did to you and expect to experience the peace God has for you.

Forgiveness does not mean you have to restore every relationship. It does not mean you must give everyone access to your life. Sometimes forgiveness means releasing the person, establishing boundaries, and allowing God to handle what you cannot change.

Remember, you can forgive someone and still choose not to have a relationship with them. You can love someone from a distance. You can wish someone well without inviting them back into your personal space. And you can forgive without forgetting the lesson.

I want to leave you with this thought: Sometimes the person you are waiting to receive an apology from may never give you one. Sometimes the closure you are looking for will never come from another person. But you do not have to remain imprisoned by what happened.

Give it to God!

LET GO, LET GOD, AND FORGIVE!
