My Heart Feels Conflicted

Written By: Tracey Stankus 11/13/24

Seems in this world you open your heart to someone and many times it is meant with distain. Your intention is to show love, caring, understanding, and share knowledge; that which has been hard earned, and has been entrusted by the creator.

The attacks you receive make you want to shut the door. How do you move forward from such things? Where do you go from there?

Do you continue to allow others to treat you this way? Do you pray to God

for discernment? Do you stay open to those who have hurt you time and time again?

How many times do you allow your heart to be broken? Is it fair for people to expect and assume you will continue to accept what they would not themselves?

So many questions to ponder. In a world of unknown’s, it is easy to be on the defense, to attack another, or bring one down with cruel words and assumptions.

Luke 6:27-28

“But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. Pray for those who spitefully use you.
