Let’s be honest… forgiveness is hard.
Not just the “I forgive you” kind that we say with a half-smile and a clenched jaw, but the deep, soul-level kind. The kind that means letting go of the right to be angry. The kind that asks you to release the past — even when you never got an apology.
In this raw and real episode of Unscripted Conversations, I’m diving into what it truly means to “Let Go and Let God.” Not in a cliché way, but in a way that frees your heart and lifts the weight you've been carrying around for way too long.
We’re talking about:
- Why forgiveness isn’t forgetting — and it’s definitely not excusing
- How unforgiveness clogs up your spiritual life like a bad drain
- What the Bible actually says about letting go
- And yes… how sometimes the person you need to forgive the most is staring back at you in the mirror
This one is for the people who are tired of holding on to the hurt. For the ones who smile on the outside but are still bleeding on the inside. For anyone who’s ever whispered, “God, I want to let go… but I don’t know how.”
Grab your coffee, a tissue, and maybe your journal — because we’re going deep today.
Scriptures shared in this episode:
- Colossians 3:13
- Luke 6:37
- Ephesians 4:31–32
- Matthew 6:14–15
- Psalm 103:12
And just a heads up: you might feel lighter by the time this ends. That’s what happens when we hand things over to the One who was never asking us to carry it alone in the first place. 💛
