Before I start, I'd like to firstly say that God has been dealing with me about forgiveness.

Many of us struggle with forgiving because of the pain that was caused and the trust issues. Whether it be having trouble forgiving others or even your own self.

Our unforgiveness is unforgiveness, it doesn't matter where it's directed.

Not forgiving someone is like a poison that's slowly taking your life. There is no peace in unforgiveness.

Forgiveness is for oneself.

Forgive, ask for forgiveness, and be forgiven.

Even if people reject it, what truly matters at the end of the day is that you gave the opportunity to yourself and others. Most importantly that in God's eyes, it is made right to HIM. It's not whether or not we or others deserve forgiveness, it's about the grace, mercy, and kindness of God. Romans 3:24

Forgiveness is not an easy road but it's possible with Jesus Matthew 19:26 and its reward is eternal life with God, peace with God, and favor with God through faith in Jesus. John 3:16 and Romans 6:23

Grace is getting something good that we don't deserve. The grace of God is a gift to us. None of us deserve His grace.

Holding onto unforgiveness puts people in a prison and lies to them that they can live peacefully. If what has happened to a person still bothers them, they're still hurt. The devil will use that pain to harden your heart more, throw you into ptsd and get triggers, ext. This is still bondage and unforgivness is still a form of enslavement to yourself and others.

When we want forgiveness, we won't get forgiveness if we don't forgive. Matthew 6:14-15 You reap what you sow whether it be now, later, or in later generations. Galatians 6:7 Forgiving someone doesn't mean you're justifying what someone did.

A person can't truly move on and cut a person off from their life while there is unforgiveness. The thought of this person may make your heart twist in pain or bad memories spring up, the wound is still there and it needs to be healed! Proverbs 17:22

Forgiving brings healing because healing comes from a place of unconditional love which can ONLY come from Jesus!! James 5:15-16 and Psalm 147:3

Jesus is God and He can help you and heal you! Not only that but by doing this, you get peace that not as the world gives but as God gives. Not false peace that lasts for a short amount of time but REAL peace that lasts forever! John 14:27 and 1 Peter 5:7

It saddens me to see people who have been hurt. Even the more when they don't know that their life is precious in God's eyes. They don't even realize how much they're loved and they cope with what has happened to them in bad ways. Romans 5:8

They practically give up because they're tired and they build walls to protect themselves but all the while they do that, they block and shun the love of Jesus.
