Forgiveness
The Lord requires that we forgive everyone, and the key to forgiving everyone is forgiving those who have hurt us deeply. For us to be spiritually and emotionally healthy, the spirit of forgiveness should permeate every relationship we have. It doesn’t matter whether the person being forgiven responds in a loving manner;we need to let go of our inner pain.
Blaming others cannot solve problems and may cause them to continue indefinitely. Fasting and praying for the power of forgiveness is an integral part of the process of reconciliation. With forgiveness - whether we receive it or give it - comes peace and confidence that will allow us to appreciate more fully what the master has done for us.
Some frustrations we must endure without really solving the problem. Some things that ought to be put in order are not put in order because we cannot control them.
If we resent someone for something he has done; or failed to do, forget it. Too often the things we carry are petty, even stupid. If you are still upset after all these years because he or she didn’t come to your wedding reception, why don’t you grow up and forget it?
If you brood constantly over a loss or past mistake, look ahead- settle it.
Forgiveness is powerful spiritual medicine. To extend forgiveness, that soothing balm, to those who have offended you is to heal. And, more difficult yet when the need is there, forgive yourself.
Our lives maybe poisoned by anger and hard feelings. Past hurts can magnify as they accumulate, and once loving relationships can become damaged beyond repair.
Honestly try to forgive and forget past wrongs. Look to the future, not to tyhrpast. Once an event is over, you can’t go back in time and change your actions, no matter how badly you might want to.Reviewing old hurts can only damage a rrelatonship; it is never a positive step.
Quarreling damages a friendship, and only forgivenssm extended uncoditionallyy to one another, can heal the broken relationship.
If we have been wronged or injured, forgiveness means to blot it completely from our minds. to forgive and forget is an ageless counsel.
Dwelling onlistakess made in the past can affect ourbehaviour to the point we become both physucally and mentally ill.
