S2E12 The Sacred Work of Making Things Right
from With Grit & Grace: Men of Courage, Women of Valor · host Lisa Vanderveen
There are moments when something feels off in a relationship ~ a conversation that didn’t land, tension that hasn’t been resolved or a situation that still carries weight.You may have said, “I’ve forgiven them.”And yet… your body still reacts. Your thoughts shift. Something tightens.In this episode, Lisa walks through what’s really happening beneath forgiveness and why simply deciding to forgive doesn’t always lead to the peace Scripture promises.This is a conversation about closing the gap between what God’s Word says is true and what you’re actually experiencing in your body, your emotions and your relationships.🔑 What You’ll Hear in This EpisodeWhy unresolved tension lingers ~ even after you’ve “forgiven”The difference between saying the words and actually experiencing releaseHow unforgiveness can remain stored in the bodyWhy this isn’t a spiritual failure and what it actually meansWhat forgiveness is (and what it is not)Why your body doesn’t automatically follow your decisionA simple, tangible practice to bring your whole being into agreementThe role of boundaries and why forgiveness doesn’t equal reconciliationHow true forgiveness opens the door to genuine blessingBreaking agreement with beliefs formed in painful moments🕊 Key TruthsForgiveness is not approval, agreement, or reconciliationYou can choose forgiveness and still feel the effects of the painPeace comes when your body, soul, and spirit come into agreement with truth.You are not doing something wrong ~ there is simply something that hasn’t come into alignment yetForgiveness releases you, not just the other person🌿 Reflection QuestionAsk Holy Spirit, "Is there someone I've said I forgive… but I'm still holding the hurt?🔥 Practical ApplicationIf someone comes to mind, try this:Say out loud:“I forgive [name] for [what they did].”Say it three times, slowly and intentionally. Not casually. Not rushed.But as a clear, grounded decision. Then notice what shifts over the next few days. If you still feel tension or resistance, that’s not failure — it’s simply a sign there’s something deeper to release.🤍 Continue the WorkInside our Kingdom Identity Network (KIN) Community, Lisa teaches a simple tapping exercise to help your body release what hasn’t shifted yet ~ so forgiveness becomes something you actually experience, not just something you say.👉 Join here: www.skool.com/identity✨ Closing ThoughtThe way you forgive…The way you repair…The way you release…That becomes part of what you leave behind.
