| My Story of Letting Go |
When
I came to Christ in the Spring of 1999, He immediately began to deal with me
about the unforgiveness weighing heavily in my heart.
I wrote down the names of
all the people I could think of that I needed to forgive. I went to the party
store and bought a bunch of helium balloons, and I attached that list of names
to the string and released them into the sky. I stood there and watched that
list of names float up, and up, and up into the sky until the balloons were completely out of
sight.
After that, anytime I recalled someone that had grieved me in the past, I would remind myself that it had floated up to Heaven on helium balloons, and I no longer had it. It became my visual reminder that all my grievances was with God in Heaven, and it no longer existed in my heart on earth.
