post-professing feelings
« Thread Started on Aug 18, 2009, 9:27pm »
Hi
I am working through my life's experiences. I quit going to meetings about a year ago now. I realize some feelings of hurt/anger/etc over realizing what I believed in isn't what it says it is. But, a lot of my feelings I realize are due to an abusive ex plus the betrayal of the friends through the divorce process. I am just wondering if I could hear from those of you who have worked through your feelings and "getting back on your feet in life" further than I have. Did you feel distrustful? What did you do to move on and overcome? God has shown me open doors and a support system and a new trust in Him. I am seeing things in the scripture now that I didn't before, and slowly I am gaining a foundation that will in the long run be stronger than I ever had before. I'd love to hear from those who have moved on, gained strength, and no longer are affected by the Truth as far as anger/hurt/etc from the pressure and criticism. I know time has to heal wounds in a lot of ways, but how we spend that time is important as to helping ourselves move up and on instead of letting ourselves sit and wallow in the past.

jolson,

I've been there.

Yes, I felt a lot of mistrust. Huge. And at the first sign of lies would over react. But understandable for what I had been through.

Here are some things that helped.

1) Anger. Write down what I was angry about. If it was wrong for someone to do something to me, I confronted them about it.

2) Hurt. Confront the person who did evil to cause the hurt.

3) Betrayal creates a lot of mistrust. It takes good friends to start being able to trust more. I found it helpful to make a list of things that I wanted in a friend and expected of myself when being a friend to someone else.

I read my Bible to overcome and move on. I learned what the Bible said and didn't say. THis gave me stability and helped me get my life rebuilt.

Brad :)
