Forgiveness!

2 Peter 1: 2 - 3        NKJV

² Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

³ as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness...

To become a forgiving person isn’t easy by any stretch of the imagination.

Actually, I don’t think forgiveness is even possible, without the power of God.

There are times when I struggle to forgive a person who has done me wrong.

Am I the only one dealing with that issue? Ahhhhh...I didn’t think so.

I sometimes forget that forgiveness must begin with a conscious choice.

I also realize that the feelings of true love, might not come for a while after.

Forgiveness is the most beautiful thing we’ll ever see.

I got to see a glimpse of it last night, with a couple who is walking through the process of forgiveness.

When I choose to obey God and forgive, I know I can do that regardless of the emotions I’m feeling at the time.

He always seems to supply me with the grace I need to forgive someone else. I also realize that at some point, I’ll be able to love and care for those folks too.

Are you having a hard time forgiving someone who has hurt you?

Allow God to help you channel His love into your heart, instead of hanging on to resentment.

God can still work remarkable miracles in the souls of His people.

As you allow God to shape you into a forgiving person, you’ll then begin to radiate His penetrating light again...
