FORGIVENESS
Last night was a very long night for me. I am still trying to stay focus on working my new job. You see, after you have been laid off twice in one year it is very hard to not panic when you see your boss and three other managers going into a room with the door closed. The first thing you think of is: "Will I be laid off again". As I continue through this journey I received a call last night from my cousin who told me that my sister announced her engagement to my ex-fiancé. What doesn't kill you just make you stronger!!! I tried so hard not to think about it but it was hard not to. Matthew 18:21-22 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. (NIV). I find it so hard to forgive the two people whom I trusted the most with my heart. But how can I say I believe in God, when Jesus died on the cross at Calvary to save my soul? How can I say I can forgive these two people who have hurt me so much? I try and I am honest to say that when I hit rock bottom I realized I had nothing or no one else to reach out to but God. So, I am happy for my sister because maybe it was meant for her. In a strange way, maybe he was meant for her. Out of my pain I can say, I am honestly happy for you and I wish them the best of luck!!!
No one hurted you, someone hurt you.
Lucinda that took the strength and wisdom of God to bring you to that place of maturity, to be able and forgive and see the bigger picture of your two loved ones uniting. God bless you as He continues to use you for His glorious work. Well done!!..you are definitely teaching me about true forgiveness. I have been dealing with a situation where a young lady I took as sister caused my youngest daughter to miss an opportunity of getting to know her father and now he's dead, was murdered. Please continue to pray for me in this area. God bless you and your family with a extraordinary New Year ...as a matter of fact everyone on her I pray this blessing over you all.
Lucinda: Don't worry he wasn't meant for you. He was foundation jumping. Its what kids/teenagers do, its part of there growing up. We adults call it rebellion cause we taught them right from wrong and thru there confidence and curiousity they jump from that foundation into the world to find there own way. He's not ready and unfortunately your sister will also learn that too. But at least now you can go find that man God wants you to be with. So get excited and don't let the wonder of it all slip away. Amen. Lol
Bless you,GOD orders our steps in this world.pray for your sister and your ex-.when GOD closed doors for us he has something greater for us.He sees things that's ahead for us.we serve an Awesome GOD.
Lucinda, sorry for your pain, the worst thing is to be betrayed by people you love. But you are right what doesn't kill you will make you the stronger person and it will, also what comes around goes around. It may be in your destiny to find another man who is truly worthy of you; you will come out the winner in the end and find the true man of your dreams. For your sister and ex boyfriend's deception and failure to at least show compassion or concern for your feelings, well let's see what the outcome will be in store for them. I wish you all the best in your future.
Ms. Jones...I want to Thank You for sharing such a life story. You are actually encouraging to me. I too.. have had loved ones hurt me.

God Bless You for sharing...May the Lord Almighty Bless you abundantly with a Career and a Faithful Loving and Caring Man only God knows you deserve. Good Night and Thnx again....
Life gets better for you now. Those supervisors are talking about promoting you dont be so scary about things happening around you.
Lucinda, God is. good and wants to forgive others especially when they have done us wrong! But it is not always easy is it Take care and many blessings, Suzi Collins
It seems as thought you founded a new job, worked the job you were employed at for a year. The company has a layoff for lack work or budget cuts: But, you end up laid off from your new job, okay don't over stress your self the job in mean time find you another job. Until, the job you had prior gives you a call.
