When I was little one day. I cursed the lord, I cursed him. I didn't mean it I was just saying it. I wasn't even around anyone. And then occasionally it comes back and I remember it. I have such a tough time forgiving myself for that even thought I know God already has.
 
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction." - Proverbs 1:7

God has forgiven you, but that feeling you have is a good one, it shows that you are not foolish.

"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift" - Romans 3:22-24
 
When I was a little girl...I was very very sad at times. The world was so wicked, I wanted to live in our church, never going home to an evil public school.
God loves you Samuel...He forgave you, because your heart didn't mean it!
God Bless you! If your heart still feels bad for cursing God,...shower Him with even more affection! Stronger love with every breath!
 
I have to take an opposite stand to some here. Feeling some guilt at something is fine. You should. But that is it. Let God know it was not your finest moment, and that you are sorry you may have hurt Him. Then................

........... DROP IT.

To continue bringing it back up is doing only ONE thing. It is playing into one of satan's most comfortable and most often employed tactics.... SHAME. And shame is totally contrary to God's will and word.

You are doing what satan wants, and not what God wants when you keep remembering what He has already told you He has forgotten.... "as far as the East is from the West."

I never thought of it that way before. Something to really think about. Thank You
 
It's kind of like going to your Daddy (because He IS our daddy) or Mommy, and repeatedly begging them to "Please love me, or forgive me for what happened last year." Don't we believe they love us or have already forgiven that temper tantrum?
 
Thank you all. I understand this a lot better, I need to give myself fully to the Lord and understand that i am already forgiven and worrying about it doesn't do anything for me. God bless you all

Doesn't God keep saying, over and over again in the Bible..... "Don't worry" and "Don't fear"?
 
Yes he does. But even despite that I always just had this nagging feeling in the back of my mind telling me that God was disappointed in me. Saying well why should he forgive someone who cursed his name, even if you didn't mean it? And in proverbs it says that 'He who covereth his sins shall not have mercy, but he who confeseth and forsake them shall be given mercy' I read that and I knew that the bible said I was forgiven. But even then I was limiting God by continuing to think that he could not or would not forgive me. But now I get it, you can't limit the Lord. You must give him full and complete control.
 
Once you have asked for forgiveness from a repentant heart --- It is gone! It is comes back to your mind --- it is from the enemy so ---- refuse to think about it and thank Father God for His eternal forgiveness!

He loves you
 
God knows we sin that is why when he was on the cross he said father forgive these people for they do not know what they are doing.
 
true sister, He also paid the price for our shame from past sinning and freedom from sins that try to hang on & the ones that are difficult to stop doing..... there is ALWAYS freedom in Jesus --- sometimes it takes a little time but HE PAID IT FOR IT ALL ! But He never meant for us to wallow in shame or guilt as long as we are truly repentant for what we do.
 
That nagging is the enemy trying to get you to doubt your relationship with God anyway he can......stand on the Truth that God has forgiven you and when those thoughts come---- just start praising God and they will stop :)
