FORGIVENESS




I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR YEARS FOR DIFFERENT FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS

THAT HAVE UN-FORGIVENESS IN THEIR HEARTS.  THEY ARE HOLDING ON TO PAST

HURTS, DISAPPOINTMENTS OR MISUNDERSTANDINGS.  IT IS NOT ONLY HURTFUL,

BUT THE BIBLE SAYS IN ORDER TO BE FORGIVEN WE MUST FORGIVE.

MOST OF THE TIME THE THINGS THAT WE HOLD AGAINST OTHER PEOPLE WE

WOULD NOT WANT SOMEONE TO HOLD AGAINST US.  I REMEMBER HEARING A

SERMON THAT SAID THAT WE JUDGE OTHERS BY THEIR ACTIONS AND OURSELVES

BY OUR INTENTIONS.  IN OTHER WORDS, WE SAY THAT ISN'T WHAT I INTENDED

OR I INTENDED TO DO THIS OR THAT WHILE WE TAKE WHAT THE OTHER PERON DID,

EVEN THOUGH IT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE HAVE DONE IN THE PAST, AS THEM DOING

IT ON PURPOSE.

WE HAVE ALL GOT TO COME TO A PLACE OF FORGIVENESS, NOT FOR THE OTHER

PERSON, BUT FOR OURSELVES.  WHEN WE WALK IN UN-FORGIVENESS WE ARE

DOING A FEW THINGS.  FIRST OF ALL WE ARE JUDGING PEOPLE WHEN ONLY

GOD IS THE ONE TRUE JUDGE.  SECOND WE ARE STOPPING THE BLESSINGS THAT

THE LORD HAS FOR YOU.  ALSO, THE PERSON OR PERSONS THAT WE ARE HOLDING

SOMETHING AGAINST IS MOVING ON WITH THEIR LIVES.

FORGIVE AND WALK IN PEACE!!
