Hello, loyal readers! Forgiving is an act of will that is difficult but necessary to do so that there are no severe results in our personal lives. Not only does it impact internally but you can visibly see in the body, our emotions and attitudes, and personal relationships the results of it.
I made an acrostic of the word Forgive to express the necessary steps to be able to succeed in this very important topic.
Face your emotions, behavior, and actions so that you don't have a root of bitterness.
Offer to God and trustworthy person your feelings, your pain, and sorrow.
Release the shackles of memories that constantly remind you of what happened.
Giveaway all the emotions, anger, resentment so you don’t internalize it.
Invite God to heal your heart and fill you with his love and grace.
Value inner peace that will provide protection to your heart and mind in God. Life is short!
Embrace God’s love and comfort to heal you spirit, soul, and body!
It is not only forgiving others but forgiving yourself. Guilt robs us of time, happiness, joy, and if possible, even our purpose in life. Decide today to surrender all that is inside so that you can exchange sadness, grief, resentment, anger, and guilt for love, mercy, joy, forgiveness, and acceptance.
"If you forgive others their transgressions, your heavenly Father will forgive you.”
Matthew 6:14
Peace, Love, and Joy!
