An unresolved past will thwart your future.

To find resolution:

Acknowledge before God – verbally and fully – the hurts, wrongs or regrets your heart’s been carrying;

Openly give or ask for forgiveness as appropriate – in your own words – whether of others or from God;

Then quietly and reverently bundle up the related burdens of your heart and release them in your spirit to the Lord;

Once you do and the Lord takes them, ask Him who you are to Him and how He sees you.

Then stay quiet before Him and let your spirit gently receive His empowering truth and peace in return.

Often the listening ear and patient encouragement of a trusted, Godly friend can help.

Ultimately, though, closure and freedom are always your choice.
