Forgiveness Sets Me Free.
Holding on to a hurt can intensify my pain and keep me stuck in unpleasant memories. Grudges, resentments, and negative emotions keep me tethered to the very experiences I wish to move beyond. When I don’t forgive, I can’t move forward, which stunts my spiritual and emotional growth. Deciding to pardon hurtful behavior heals me from within. If I struggle to offer heartfelt forgiveness, I can still pray for peace for myself and another. As I work toward being able to forgive, I know the unconditional love of God is for everyone. This knowledge moves me into a new dimension of love and peace. I am ready to begin again, to go forth renewed and filled with freedom and joy. Forgiveness has washed me clean.
Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone.—Mark 11:25
