UNLESS WE FORGIVE OTHERS, GOD WON’T FORGIVE US
To forgive is, first and foremost, a duty we owe ourselves. We forgive for the sake of our own well-being. One of the things that can motivate us to forgive is an appreciation of our own need of forgiveness.
Jesus says that unless we forgive others God won’t forgive us.
The fault is not with God but with us. When we refuse to forgive we break down the bridge over which we ourselves must pass.
Forgiveness also benefits the person who is forgiven. It sets the person free to walk in friendship with God and with the person he has offended. However, forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting the wrong done to us, rather it is remembering and letting go.
I end with this quote, “The stupid neither forgive nor forget, the naive forgive and forget but the wise forgive but do not forget.”
Forgiveness is one of the highest and most beautiful forms of love. It is a holy taks. Only God can help us to accomplish it fully. May God’s grace enable you forgive that person that has remained unforgivably engraved in your heart today through Christ Our Lord Amen!
Happy Sunday beloved in Christ! Fadafido Cares!
