I have found healing by writing letters to God. The act of expressing my fears, feelings and emotions has taken me to a place where He speaks directly to me.
My Letter
I had wanted to hide the pain and shame I felt when Jerry left me. But then, I realized it was time to be honest with God.
Dear Heart Keeper,
How are You? Me, I feel emotionally exhausted. It's taking a toll on my physical well-being. I've never experienced this much stress, worry, and depression in my life. I know I should have gotten over these feelings by now. It's just hard to let it go.
It's time I went on with my life. Jerry has. I need to stop replaying the memories in my mind. I need to stop memorializing pass pain. It's virtually impossible to drive forward and look backward.
It's time for me to relinquish past hurt and the power that has held me prisoner. It's time to forgive myself so I can take hold of the realities that can only be found by walking hand in hand with You to fulfilling purpose.
Heart Keeper, I do not want to oversleep in my past and miss what You have awakened me for. Heal me completely and make me whole.
Love,
Amaka.
Amaka.
How it feels so good to pour out my heart to God. I find it a privilege and an honour.
