Forgiving What You Can't Forget: Discover How to Move On, Make Peace with Painful Memories, and Create a Life That’s Beautiful Again

by Lysa TerKeurst

We are living with our eyes open to good and evil. The enemy is such a liar. This awareness didn’t help mankind understand more. Sin only

makes us think that what we see on earth is all there is to know.

When I was saying God wasn’t answering my prayers, what I was really saying was God wasn’t doing what I wanted Him to do.

Romans 12:18 teaches, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all”

In other words, peace in my life isn’t being prevented by other people’s choices. It’s made possible by my choices.

Not forgiving someone isn’t teaching the other person a lesson, nor is it protecting you in any way. It’s making the choice to stay in pain.
