Forgive, Forget and find freedom! ●
Forgive, Forget and find freedom!
By being able to forgive and letting go of the event we leave a dark part of our lives behind us and feel the freedom. We learn from the experience and we move on to explore other things in life. We have learned what happens when we get into a situation with that person. We now know what can go wrong, so we learn how to avoid it or handle it better the next time.
When we don't forgive we hold on to the resentment. It's like stoking a little fire within ourselves. Each time we recall of the injury it burns us a little. The heat of the hate bakes our heart hard to those involved. The smoke of this fire blurs our vision and darkens our world. By holding on to the memory of the event we harden and darken our own lives.
May we find freedom in forgiving and love in our lives.
Amen.
Abegunde Julius Taiwo.
