How To Deal With Guilt; Experiencing A Life Of Freedom in Only 10 Days!

I am certainly not a large fan of guilt. It's upsetting! Every time I turn around, something is slinking around the corner that makes me feel guilty. What I eat or should not, how much I exercise - or do not, people which I should have called but did not and the things I should have done now but left until tomorrow or later. The list isn't ending as is the guilt and I know I am not by myself in what I'm experiencing.

The Baltimore Sun newspaper has compiled an in depth group of articles they've written on the guilt individuals experience, including everything from mom guilt to survivors guilt that includes individuals who've survived the present recession with their employment still intact and those who have lived through an aircraft crash when others did not.

How to deal with guilt is the underlying question of a culture loaded with guilt, because many individuals are being burdened by guilt. Guilt is a horrible thing. Dependent on the cause of guilt, the resulting embarrassment and remorse can make living life rather difficult, even debilitating if life gets to be too much. There isn't any question that a large amount of guilt is self-inflicted based totally on unrealistic expectations by individuals or ourselves. We need to figure out how to let go of that sort of guilt, or better yet, not let ourselves own it. Nevertheless, sometimes guilt is reasonable when created by wrong, immoral or illegal behavior. If thats the case, what are the options?

In understanding the best way to handle guilt, you might try to get along with guilt, tell yourself it is in the past and whats done is done and move on with what is bound to be a less joyous life. Or you might try and excuse or decrease it, referencing thirty different individuals you know who've done what you did or worse, causing you to feel much better in comparison. Or you might use the remainder of your time in life punishing yourself for it? (Lots of individuals do this without realising it.) If you have done something in your life you really regret, you know none of these are outstanding options. Your guilt could ruin your life before you attain relief going down one of those roads.

A better choice is to seek clemency from the Person who is really able to pardon you, your Heavenly Father. What causes guilt is sin and sin is anything contrary to what God wants us to think, do or say! So, what that implies then is that all sin is ultimately against God.

King David writes in the 51st chapter verse 4 of Psalms when he asserts against you and you only have I sinned and done that which is malevolent in your sight he was referring to the cheating he had committed with Bathsheba and the subsequent murder of her husband when trying to hide it. Yes, there were individuals involved in his sins but above all his sins were against God. As a result it was God's absolution that he required.

God pardons and forgives our sins and thats where the freedom from our guilt comes from. God, when he forgives, completely releases the offender from any further punishment of the offense and He even goes so far as to not remember what we did. He can accomplish that because He is God. Now, there still might be results from the sin you committed that cannot be avoided; cheating on a exam might still result in failing the subject, an adulterous affair may still result in the marriage breaking up and not being honest to a supervisor could mean the end of a job but it does not mean those cannot ever be forgiven or pardoned.

If we have a relationship with the Lord, through His Son, God promises us in I John nineteen. If we confess our sin He is loyal and just to pardon us of our sin and to clean us from all unrighteousness (everything not in conformance to His will in purpose, thought and action). Not only does He clean us but He removes our guilt.

Our culture is very good at handling things we do not know the way to fix. We may manage disease and discomfort and suffering. We attempt to manage our anxiety and fear and even our guilt. We use far too much wasted time on handling things that He wants to fix, deliver us from or forgive us of and give us freedom in this life. Living alongside guilt is not the way He intends for anybody to live. He paid the highest price possible, the death of His Son Jesus, for your forgiveness and release from guilt. Why then, would He not welcome your request to do so happily?
