Forgiveness is for the one forgiving. Carrying around bitterness and unforgiveness can get too heavy to bear. God commands us to forgive for how can he forgive us if we have not forgiven others. Bitterness and hate makes us old wrinlked and ugly.I have seen people that have carried the bitterness for years that looked years beyond thier age. The second they forgave it was like years were wiped off thier face.
I have also seen as a nurse the ones that were dying without the Lord and forgiveness fight a terrible death. They were scared of the unknown . The patients that really knew God had a peaceful expression on thier face. I believe they were able to see face of Jesus and into heaven. One night I had a beloved man and his family singing gospel songs and praying as he was dying. I asked them if I could pray for him. As I did I felt the presence of the Lord in that room. As I walked back up the hall I felt. hugh presence behind me they were like 10 feet tall.One was on each side of me. It almost brought to my knees. I went into an empty room and cryed.
There isn't anything anyone has done to you that can not be forgiven. You have been forgiven of many sins the same as what that one that is asking for forgiveness.
Look at it as a free makeover.
love all of you.
