Forgiveness brings peace, happiness, and joy. Forgiveness unburdens your heart and sweeps your soul clean of bitterness and rage. Forgiveness robs Satan of a foothol. He can't exist when you perform the housecleaning of the soul. However, forgiveness is not easy nor is it a one time thing. Sometimes you need to forgive seventy times seven as the scripture says. The good news is that the more you exercise the decision to forgive, the better your life will be.
There are some things harder to forgive than others. Forgiving an offender is a process. One things is for certain. Everyone needs forgiveness. And everyone needs to forgive.
I don't know who said it but it's true. Not to forgive is "like drinking a cup of poison and waiting for the other person to die." Think about that the next time you are called on to forgive another's trespass.
