'I give up'
''I give up' is so much gentler and forgiving than 'move on', 'get over it', 'stop wallowing', 'get past it', 'put it behind you'.
'I give up' feels like a releasing balm.
'I give up' I can do. Thankyou Rick =)
Also, I think 'I give up' is the final surrender that I need to say so I can truly cast my cares to God and not keep hanging onto some wee bit of it to try to wrangle some control over something I may never have had any power to change. The sorrow and repentance for past mistakes or misdeeds can rattle around inside us for our lifetime. 'I give up' , 'I am sorry', 'please forgive me' is I believe what God is waiting to hear to let us receive the forgivness that has already been bought and paid for for us =)

Thank you so much for this. I relate to giving up and call it surrendering. It is the soft embrace of sorrow for me. On my knees with forgiveness. Thank you for the reminders and the teachings. Much love
