How to Make Peace With Your Past

From YouTube

Description

Your resolutions are fading, and the weight you carry started long before January, so how do you make peace with your past? Pastor Kaloma Smith says your past both formed you and hurt you, and Jesus' invitation in Matthew 11 is how you reconcile with it. Bring the one thing that still weighs on you to Jesus, take his yoke and learn from him, and let him grow an inner peace in you over time. In this sermon, Pastor Kaloma Smith of UAMEZ Church in Palo Alto, California preaches on Matthew 11:28-30 and shows why fighting the symptoms of your past never touches the thing underneath. Questions this sermon answers How do you make peace with your past without pretending it didn't happen? See God's hand in the years behind you, good and painful, without staying trapped in the pain. How do you let go of the past? Pick one thing, start talking to God about just that, and accept that growth is a learning process that takes time.
