In his book “YOUR Best Life NOW”, Joel Osteen tells his experience with his wife, Victoria, meeting some women who had problems in building relationship with men because they had been aggrieved in the past. Osteen said, those women admit that every time they build a new relationship with a man, they always try to make that man pays the iniquities they have received from another man.

Those women, Osteen said, are trying to collect debts they thought were taken from them. The debts could not be paid off by any man, though. Only God can pay off the debts.

Bad incidents in the past should not be brought to the present. Because, by doing so, you will hurt taintless people. You have to hand over your past to God. Keep your heart free from bitterness, and do not try to collect debts that only God can pay off.

Start every single day as a new day. Let the past go away. If someone offended and let you down yesterday, then take a decision to forgive and move on. Even when your boss were rude to you yesterday, just forgive him. Don’t go to work with resentment. Remember today is a new day.

Then what about people whom we have hurt? What should we do? Nothing but apologize to them. But when you find deadlock to apologize and correct the mistakes, surrender all to God. Accept His grace and live your best life now.
