WHY OH WHY?

Why oh why do we blame others for our wrongdoings? By doing that we are denying ourselves the opportunity to accept our responsibility and face up to our errors. We sometimes find ourselves blaming our spouse, friend, mother, father, society or some other person or situation apart from ourselves. You must accept that whatever the case might be, you are responsible for your own actions. The job you are currently moaning about was accepted by you and you were quite excited when you got it, so why not make the best of it instead of moaning about it. If you are blaming your wife, spouse, family member or society for whatever situation you find yourself in right now, you were the one who proposed to her in the first place or found her attractive enough to date her, so why blame someone else. Take responsibility for your own actions. The food that made you fat, you were the one who ate it all by yourself! The drink that made you become alcohol dependent was bought by you and drank by you alone! No one can force a horse to drink water. Can you see that you need to stop blaming others in order that you can free yourself from this bondage of blame in order to move forward? Take time to take stock of your life and make the decision to move forward from where you are by accepting your own responsibility and taking action towards making life better for yourself. My prayer for you is that you will come to a place in your life where you are able to forgive others and let go of whatever it is that is stopping you from moving on in your life. I pray that whatever is causing the anger you might be feeling right now will be uprooted as a result of your determination and that healing will take root in your heart. I pray that you would have the strength to find a place in your heart to forgive ALL those who have wronged you so that you also can be healed and set free in your own self. God bless you as you take this new step with determination to move forward in your life.
