How can I find a way to get along with my family again? When I’m around my family be it a small get together or for a big family occasion like Christmas, everyone seems to not have let go of the past mistake(s) I’ve made. Their patterns of behavior in the way I’m treated is awkward and difficult to deal with. Anything I do to erase that impression falls short.
What can I do ? Unforgiven / not forgiving is removing me from my family. How do I get along with the unloved feeling of not being loved due to such being held against me ?
1st forgive them.
What Jesus says when asked:
Matthew 18:21-22
21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
