Power Of Forgiveness

The power of forgiveness is an amazing ability to have. Forgiveness can release,bind and speed up things in your life.

You hold so much weight in your ability to forgive someone who has done you wrong in some way. When you withhold your forgiveness you are forever linking yourself to that person until you forgive them.

The offense can be as little as someone stealing your bike in middle school to someone who had physically harmed you in some form. Everyone has had someone wrong them in life,but it’s how you move forward afterwards that has the longest lasting effects. So, holding onto your ability to forgive the person/people involved in doing you wrong,you are tightening the cuffs that are linking you with them. Meanwhile that person(s) is moving on with their lives, possibly not even thinking about you or what they have done to you.

Some of you may be satisfied knowing this and think that the other party doesn’t deserve to be forgiven because you are left with the aftermath of what was done to you,but you have to remember that you can’t be forgiven by God because you are withholding your forgiveness. He is no respecter of persons, therefore He will not forgive some believers and not others because He felt like it. The only way you can prevent God’s forgiveness is if you withhold yours.

Don’t let the person(s) move on with their lives while you’re stuck in your feelings about what had happened.

Forgiving is not condoning what was done to you, it is an act or choice that you make because you don’t want to linked to them anymore and you want to be able to be forgiven in the future.
