Forgiveness

I have heard it said that bitterness is like drinking from poison and expecting the other person to die....watch this clip.

Link about Forgiveness

Everyone has their stories of sadness and sorrow. Some more than others. Some of those decisions have shaped us. Maybe for the good. Maybe for the worse.

But the fact of the matter is that there are many times we forget Jesus in our lives. There are times when we neglect what He says and we do not follow Him.
We run from Him.
We question Him.
We get angry with Him.
We reject Him and His Word.
We despise Him.
We use Him for the good but curse Him for the bad.
We don't want anything to do with Him.


And yes, after all of that, God still loved us enough to send His Son to die for us. Jesus forgave the sin and shame we carry. Even when we neglect, curse, question, or run from Him. He still and always will have open arms to take us back.

He decided to forgive us, knowing our past, present, and future sins.

If Jesus can forgive us, why do we struggle to forgive others? Let Go. Let God take care of it. He knows what you are going through. Trust Him. No one else understands what and why you are going through this. He is the only one that can give you the strength to forgive. He is the only one that can give you the courage to trust Him.

Mark 11:25
And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.
