I'm not sure what you mean by "...Hi Nancy. I'm not sure what you mean by "healing prayer." If my post sounds like I'm dealing continually with unforgiveness, I am not. But I do find that something can jog my memory and take me back there. I don't stay there, though...I'm grateful for His grace. ☺The Brown Recluse (TBR)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02842968253903586925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640236513023052848.post-4599335453724964392018-08-20T08:52:45.439-05:002018-08-20T08:52:45.439-05:00Have you ever participated in healing prayer?

She was in nursing school. Here's a kicker...when I had my child, she was in the room with a couple of other nursing students. I probably should have told them all to leave. lol<br /><br />The teacher...I was on a FB page for that elementary school, and I mentioned how mean she was...and people were commenting how she was their favorite teacher! I'd like to think I wasn't the only one, but there were some who didn't share my experience. <br /><br />The truly forgive thing? Yeah, that's a hard one. This is what I commented on my FB post for this post: <br />I've gotten very angry at someone because of their actions to me and someone I love. I would find myself having conversations in my mind (a lot) with her...just letting her stay there rent-free in my head. I would make the choice to forgive, but find myself in the very same boat yet again! Finally, I started praying for her every time I realized I was thinking about her. At first, it really galled me to ask God to bless her spiritually, financially, and physically, but I did it. Every time. The prayer got easier, and her memory stopped calling.<br /><br />I try to remember to do that now if something tries to steal my forgiveness (as in those I've already forgiven.) <br /><br />I'll be talking about this ^^ more in a subsequent post.

I'm glad you are able to forgive, because that what helps us...forgiveness is for us, not so much for the one who hurt us.The Brown Recluse (TBR)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02842968253903586925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640236513023052848.post-77239656002200922012018-08-19T12:34:14.526-05:002018-08-19T12:34:14.526-05:00Thank you, Deb.

I know there are circumstances that come to my mind at times of things I should have done or didn't do (not in this type of situation but others, did I make the right decision to intervene or not to intervene) that have caused me to be ashamed of my actions. Its sad about the teacher because if she made your life hard, you got to know you weren't the only one and there are others out there probably having to also forgive her. <br /><br />I think resentment for me is something I have to work on. That and bitterness. Got to learn to forgive and then to truly forgive, not carry it around with me.<br /><br />Very insightful post.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640236513023052848.post-61985532648998257402018-08-19T08:52:46.911-05:002018-08-19T08:52:46.911-05:00Wow!
