Guilt is dangerous. No, it’s deadly. (But worse than death is the life that it suffocates.)
It shows up unannounced and it never wants to leave /doesn’t think it has to/ it’s lazy/ it leeches onto you/ follows you everywhere you go/and interrupts your life into any conversation and when it’s feeling most powerful, it intertwines itself into your thoughts. It literally screams that you are not enough. That you have done something so wrong that can never be forgiven!
Guilt has the strength to literally incapacitate you.
•Creative imagination is it’s super power. •Guilt makes you despise yourself.
It turns you secretly prideful and perpetuates blame onto everyone besides you. •The more root you’ll allow it to take hold, the more strength it gains.
It laughs as you struggle to stay loyal to it/ It craves your awareness of it/ It fears you forgetting it.
You can forget.
Powerful words and thoughts here, Leslie. As ponder them, a question comes to mind. Are you talking about real guilt or false guilt?

Glad you’re pondering my writing!
Guilt is from the devil.
Conviction is from the Lord. So, I guess to answer your limiting question, I was talking about “false guilt”.
