Never Have Shame In Naming The Harm That Was Done To You | Episode 33

When is it okay to talk about the hard things in your story? Do you feel as if you are allowed? 

To be able to name the things of harm in your story is not only important, it’s necessary for your healing. For far too long the generations of the past have demanded that we “shut up and move on” or tell us “it wasn’t that bad”. 

We are told we are being babies and complaining about things we shouldn’t talk about. This is the very reason why most Christians cannot get out of their own way to let God walk them through the grieving before we can get to the healing! We cannot bypass this important piece. You can then learn forgiveness when you clear the path completely and honestly. 

Some questions we cover in the episode are: 

• When is it right for someone to speak for you?

• Do you feel guilt over talking about your past, because it’s over and now you are happy?

• Can you love your Mom if you name the harm?

• Is forgiveness possible?

Forgiveness and love are always possible and necessary; mostly for you and your future. God intended it that way. It’s the peace that surpasses all understanding. On our own, we can’t do it, with Him all things are possible.
