If you continue to blame other people for “making” you feel guilty, they still have power over you, and you are saying that you will only feel good when they stop doing that. You are giving them control over your life. Stop blaming other people.

Faith goes beyond reason. It goes beyond what you can see. But it is as real as anything you can touch or feel.
Henry Cloud

Dating should be a part of your life, not your life a part of dating. There is more to life than finding a date.
Henry Cloud
Image
He is the Truth, and He wants us to deal in truth with ourselves and our loved ones. We want the truth about you and your family to flood into and overrun the secrets that keep you in bondage to dysfunctional behavior and relationships
Henry Cloud
