Q: How can I stop feeling guilty that I’m never doing enough?
A: Guilt is a destructive habit to have. It destroys a person’s confidence and takes others with them. For years, parents have allowed guilt to tug on their hearts. From that feeling, they have sought their children’s approval instead of leading their children into the adult world of what actions and rewards require. Because of this, sisters and brothers are often left to take care of their siblings by teaching them the ropes of the real world. As you grow up inside, you are going to develop the character of a self-sufficient person who wants to be rewarded only for that which you developed. It is a good character to have, in that it frees you up from having the expectation that anyone owes you something, or you owe anyone something. While Jesus walked the Earth he heard misery and excuses from many about their illnesses and conditions. Jesus taught misery itself not to return to the soul of his followers because he wanted them to follow him through their hearts, not through fear or obligation.
Come free from the chains of guilt. Teach yourself to grow up inside! Become a beacon of freedom by choosing to do only that which uplifts your heart. Once you do, you’ll be amazed how often you’ll want to do kind and generous things! Love Jesus for awarding you and all those like you the path of freedom from misery and guilt by taking you down the path to true freedom. This is what becoming reborn is all about!
