We've all made mistakes and wrongful deliberations, some of us have not forgiven ourselves. But is it our place as humans to determine whether or not we are unforgivable, seeing as we were made in God's image? How does one go about forgiving themselves anyway?

In my case specifically, I remained silent about childhood sexual abuse for 14 years, resulting in my younger siblings being privy to different degrees of the same thing. Struggling to convince myself I DON'T deserve the millstone. No pity or apologies please, I just need insight.

Take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. I know it's easy to just rattle off scriptures, but that one seems particularly appropriate.

Look at what Paul did before his conversion. How does he talk about himself? What is his relationship with grace?

I assume he didn't speak highly of himself, I'll have to read about him

Uh... why not just read the New Testament? At the very least you could read the book of Galatians and the short passage in 1 Timothy 1:12-17
