Forgiving Others Sets Us Free

Forgiveness is a gift of God for he is the perfect forgiver casting all our sins far away promising to always fully deliver When we cast ourselves on the Lord to receive His wonderful salvation then we can be filled with His spirit to fulfill His will on each occasion Now when people treat us wrongly God wants us to forgive them true Christian behavior is to obey whatever He says for it's His way To freely forgive sets us free for not doing so will keep us bound so it's always better to be freed God's blessing puts us on holy ground Freely forgiving is always better than holding grudges against anyone it sets your soul up and away as Jesus did being God's son (This is written in response to some thoughts on forgiveness, Jesus told us to forgive others and sometimes we forget to forgive ourselves. Everyone does wrong and it frees us to forgive, then God can bring healing to your souls.)

This always happens to me: When I forgive I find I had forgotten the heavy burden I carried, but at the time I was truly be able to forgive, it was like a heavy load had been lifted from me. Your poem describes this feeling of freedom Gordon and its so true. You have a wonderful talent for poetry my friend.

Indeed, forgiving is needed for self-healing, otherwise we carry the toxins of hate, anger and resentment within us. Ho’oponopono is a great forgiveness prayer. Eventually, it’s better to get to acceptance though, where we accept all as they are and so feel no sense of injury, thus obviating the need to forgive.
