Forgiving others is one of the most difficult things we are tasked with as individuals. I know for sure the many times we have been put in spaces where we need to forgive or be forgiven. It isn't easy but it is necessary.
Jesus, in teaching his disciples the model prayer in Matthew chapter 6, Verse 12 says, "forgive us our debts as we also have forgiven our debtors." It is very clear that if we are not be forgiven, we must forgive those who wronged us in any way.
We seldom hear folks say that forgiveness is for you, I beg to say that it is both for the one who committed the act and also for the person who was the recipient. Forgiveness frees you from the prison of your mind. if you want your life to be productive learn to forgive.
The Bible states, I am paraphrasing, if you regard iniquity inyour heart the Lord will not hear you." We want our prayers to be answered, start forgiving the small and the great. Our lives would be richer and fuller when we live peaceably with all men.
