Give it and You Will Get it





Forgiveness is the mental, emotional and/or spiritual process of ceasing to feel resentment, indignation or anger against another person for a perceived offence, difference or mistake, or ceasing to demand punishment or restitution.

Forgive and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37

If we hope to receive forgiveness ourselves--we MUST forgive. I didn't say it. The Bible did. Wow. We ALL need forgiveness, each and every last one of us. We all need it, but are we all granting it? Something to think about...

It's easy for me to forgive these days. First, I'm older (and hopefully, wiser) than most everyone I am around. Second, I've been forgiven soooo much that it would be a sin not to forgive quickly and thoroughly. And finally, I've come to know that unforgiveness is a burden that I must bear until I decide to lay it down, and most everyone knows that I'm not into carrying anything around very long.
