50Twenty

Honesty is the foundation of recovery. We like to use the Emotional Spiral when we are coaching at 50TWENTY, because it provides clarity and honesty of where we stand based on the emotions we are experiencing.

'Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.' Jesus spoke these words while He was being crucified on the cross.

I have a deeper understanding of these words today, because I long for forgiveness from a person who will never forgive me. It brings saddness and sorrow to my heart.

I find the last phrase interesting 'for they know not what they do'. Depression and addiction make us numb to life we have no idea the extent to which we hurt people while we live in darkness.

If we are blessed enough to receive the Light, repent of our sins, and turn back to the Lord we can regain our feelings.

The blessing is we are restored. The curse is we realize the pain we caused everyone we love many of whom rightfully made the choice to abandon us for what we did to them.

Praise Jesus for leaving us with this example of Godly Forgiveness. May we learn to forgive those who have hurt us with the understanding that many times 'they know not what they do'.

If you have ever lived with the weight of depression you will relate to the words of this song. Depression is heavy, deep, and lonely. Those around you won't understand you. But, Jesus will! Turn to the Him and rest in the shade of the Cross.
