"Forgive all who have offended you, not for them, but for yourself." by
Harriet Nelson. Forgiveness is a gift that has been afforded to each human
being. It is the responsibility of each person to seek counsel, advice, coaching
and or healing in order to experience the rewards of forgiving.
Many people
have a difficult time forgiving, just like me, a
seller, because in their heart they feel they have reason to hold something
against another person. They justify why they do not forgive, they go n to
explain what was one to them. Let's look at an example which is prevalent in our
society. Many couples and marriages end up separated and divorced due to the act
of infidelity. When this behavior occurs in a relationship and they go their
separate ways, there will be some form of resentment, anger and un-forgiveness.
I have personally learned to forgive family members that have caused injury to
my emotions and my physical body. Now I am not saying it's easy, but I am saying
that it is possible. I will not go into detail in exactly what took place, but I
will say that as long as I did not forgive those persons, I was miserable,
unhappy and my whole focus was the emotional injuries that took place. I was
stuck with feelings of un-forgiveness.
Forgiveness is the key to becoming
whole again after a crisis has taken place in someone's life. The path of
happiness and peace will not be experienced until the individuals seek help.
Forgiveness is our portion. We are entitled to activate that precious gift that
we have been given. It has to become an act of faith to release the person or
persons who have caused you harm. All the solutions to life's problems are
within us. Forgiveness can be ne of the most difficult revelations to
understand, but as you read, I hope forgiveness becomes a reality to you.
Forgiveness heals people, cities, nations and the world. All are capable of
putting down their own agendas and learn to forgive. Forgiveness brings freedom
to our heart and mind.
Remember forgiveness is a gift you deserve.
