God's Love Is For Us : We Must Forgive Ourselves

His love is for you, and we must forgive ourselves. Life's circumstances, trials, tribulations, and testing of one's faith don't cause anyone to say, "I know God loves me because of the hardships I'm faced with." Some of these hardships are survivor's remorse, depression, the social stigma that comes with mental health as a veteran, amputations, scars, disfigurement, drug addiction, isolation, being socially withdrawn, low self-esteem, and lack of a sense of purpose. As soldiers, we leave home, we serve, and many of us come home not knowing where our place is after the military. Therefore, our sense of self-worth is very low. Soldiers need encouragement and to be reminded that God loves us, and forgiving oneself gives peace to a troubled life even in the middle of life's storms. God's Love Is for Us is full of reminders of our need for God's love in our hearts to fuel our faith and to stay in the fight with our fellow brothers and sisters.
