FORGIVENESS

We are often let down by the people close to us.
People we love and people who we less expect to do that to us.
It hurts to have our friends betray us.
And it seems so hard to forgive them.
But we have to.
We are called to an extraordinary life that calls us to.
Forgive, Forgive, Forgive, Forgive.

Christianity forgiveness
1. Do not let the sun go down whilst you are still angry at someone. You have definitely killed them at that point in time. We all know this? Yes?
2.You do not need them to say sorry to you for you to forgive them because if they have to beg you, ask for your forgiveness with something in return, then it ceases ti be forgiveness and you guys are even.
3. Forgiveness is not a thing you brag about of course, Its a thing a Christian should put in their daily living.
Christians should by nature be forgiving people.
4. You cannot tire of forgiveness. You cannot tire of forgiving someone to the point of not forgiving them again. Imagine if our father just one day got tired of the way we sin and decided to not forgive us anymore. We have to mimic His holiness and forgiving nature.

By forgiving, we earn forgiveness from the Lord Father as well. In the Lords Prayer it says, Forgive us as we Forgive those who trespass against us (Matthew 6:12). Meaning that, we ask the Good Lord to forgive by bargaining that we are also able to forgive people who do us wrong. 'For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.' Matthew 6:14-15

There is no good reason why the Lord should forgive our sins if we are not able to do so for others.

'Be ye perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is Prefect' Matthew 5:48

So every time you think about asking the Good Lord for forgiveness, remember all the people that have done you wrong, and find it in your heart to forgive them. Yes, when they have not even said sorry. Because that forgiveness counts the most, and is the true reflection of our Fathers purity. Who will in turn forgive us in the same way.

*Stay Blessed.
