Our willingness to forgive should stem from this fact that
God forgave us first.
-We need to consider other people's imperfections & not
raise a standard for others which they cannot achieve.
-Consider your own imperfections before you come
down on others!!
-Release the burden of guilt you're holding
against others...keeping grudges saps energy from you.
-Releasing others will benefit you more than the
one you were holding it against!!
What forgiveness is not!
Forgiveness is not forgetting.
It is not regaining automatic trust in repairing broken relationship
It is also not a removal of the consequences
It is not ignoring the offense
it is not instant emotional healing
it is not gaining the leverage of power...holding
a person ransom because you've forgiven them!
Forgiving with God will start the healing possess.
