"Being A Forgiver"
Forgiving some people is a difficult thing to do sometimes, but the forgiving is done more for the forgiver than for the person one might think needs forgiving. To forgive one's trespassers is to set oneself free as well as it is to set the other person or people free too. Many of you have heard the expression of someone living rent-free in someone else's mind; well, that is what happens when one cannot find themselves able to forgive the other person. Many times, in fact, the person he or she is having trouble forgiving does not even realize that someone is having trouble forgiving them; thus, the unforgiver is the one who is in bondage while the other one is running around free as a bird, as they say. As a matter of fact, one of the worst things a person can do to themselves is to hold unforgiveness in their heart, because all it will do is eat the unforgiver up inside.
Therefore, children of Almighty GOD, learn to rise above the pettiness of unforgiveness and to be able to set yourself free. Oh, I realize that some of you might feel that certain people do not deserve your forgiveness, but then what made you so worthy of forgiveness when JESUS CHRIST decided to forgive you? That is what He did, you know, for everyone who would receive Him as their Lord, Savior, and King. When you really think about it, you deserve no more or less forgiveness than anyone else does, including those you might think have trespassed against you in some way. Do you truly think that you are better or more deserving of forgiveness than anyone else? So many of you need to just get over yourselves, because none of you are really any better than anyone else when it comes right down to it. I realize that some of you think that you are the cat's meow, but you are highly mistaken. Now, may you learn to be a forgiver from this day forth, in and through JESUS CHRIST, your Lord, Savior, and King.
AMEN
