Reading this post by Diluted, I have to agree, sometimes words lose their meaning when spoken too late. This can be true if they are not spoken when they should be. Some of us have experienced trauma in our lives and should have said something a long time ago; however, we kept the words bottled up and held on to them instead of releasing them. Some of us have experienced traumatic experiences and have acted out negativity instead of releasing unspoken words that bring healing to themselves.
People sometimes change and begin to see you differently because their hearts have received healing and their situations have changed; however, sometimes the words that would have set you free are spoken too late or not at all, and therefore lose their meaning and weight.
When your heart cries out for deliverance, and you begin to fight the space and distance between your healing and freedom, your mindset has to change. You have to start thinking differently. The words you speak can be the healing you need to lift not only your head, but the head of the one(s) who have caused you trauma. Your life is not your own. Your story is going to help lift someone else. I often say we are created to help one another. People need people.
How long will you stay bound in depression, low self-worth, anxiety, fear, or whatever is keeping you from progressing in life? How long will you remain in shackles, hidden away, disguised, living in hypocrisy, while the inner you is crying out to be taken from the mess, the trauma, the noise in your head?
If you can’t speak the words, write a letter, create a song, or journal them. However you do it, if it can bring you healing, let it out. Your freedom can begin today.
When words are spoken too late, they can often lose their meaning and weight, and here you are, another year broken, with the mumbles from the depths of your spirit, crying out for deliverance. Reclaim your peace today. Respectfully speak what needs to be spoken, and prepare your heart for a response. Despite the outcome, you deserve healing and peace.
