I needed to hear this today! While reading Dani Johnson's "Spiritual Driven Success" book, I was inspired by this following passage and I hope it will inspire (not judge) you too!
"Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you (Eph. 4: 31-32). You cannot get rid of all these negative attitudes and behaviors without forgiveness. Our personal and professional leadership will be hindered when we carry negative attitudes and behaviors. In fact, God cannot and will not expand our territories when we carry bitterness, rage, anger, brawling, slander, and every form of malice. He cannot trust us with other people when we use our influence negatively. But when we fully forgive those who have hurt or hindered us from the past, then the Lord can expand our territories because then our influence is used to honor and build up instead of tear down. Unforgiveness is a massive hindrance for being promoted in our jobs. It’s also a reason why churches and businesses don’t grow. It’s the reason for divorce and for prodigal sons and daughters. We will not be trusted with influence because we have not done what Scripture commands us to do."
Ouch!
Have a blessed day!
