Forgiveness

Forgiveness. 

"Show me how to love the unlovable
Show me how to reach the unreachable
Help me now to do the impossible
Forgiveness" - MW

This is what I keep telling myself.  We are supposed to forgive others, no matter what the incident may be.  The Bible tells us this so many times.  Why is it so hard to do so?

I want to forgive some for their pasts, for hurting me, but it's hard.  I know that I deserve better than to hold on to anger, guilt, and all the pain.  Forgiveness would let that wash away.  It doesn't mean I have to forget what happened or to even welcome those in my life.  Just forgive them for what they did.

I will pray.  Pray that I learn how to forgive in all situations.  I want to be happy and at peace, and I know forgiveness is the only way to conquer this.  Forgiveness means healing.  Forgiveness is a way to set you free.

Do you need to focus on forgiving?  Learning how to better do so?  Do you have stories about forgiveness.  I'd love to hear.  Pray with you.  Help in any way I can.  I am here for you.
