It’s My Belief That Forgiveness Sets Us Free..

*Forgiveness will release your load and heal the soul:

We, as people, have a tendency to carry unforgiving around in our hearts and souls every day…do you think this is good for our mental health and our bodies health? When we have a disagreement with another person and they say something cruel or do something cruel to us, we do have a tendency to shut them out forever, and even if they approach us for forgiveness, we will not accept their forgiveness. It may be a family member, a friend, a casual acquaintance or someone we work closely with. We keep the load and carry it around with us day after day and the unforgiving increases each time we see them.

*Do you find you’re carrying around a grudge, resents and anger:

We find we are carrying around a deep grudge and feelings of resentment and anger, and many times, we find we are miserable inside and would love to release these feelings. Many people look at those who cannot forgive as being heartless and uncaring people and they cannot understand their reasoning’s. People who cannot forgive others might well have a problem that stems back to their early childhood days. They could have been repeatedly hurt and insulted by their own mother, dad, or one of their siblings or by a teacher or a close friend and they never once asked them to forgive them for what they did to them. The hurt individual went around for years harboring this infest-ion of anger and resentment and they have kept it in their mind for years and they told themselves, “I’ll never allow this to happen to me again because I’ll be a person who never asks for forgiveness either.”

It’s sad to see people who have become adults and have this set frame of mind and have lived their lives with anger and resentment. Do you want to be like this person? It will be a thorn in your side forever and you’ll never have any peace in your mind and heart until you change your unforgiving ways.

*Forgiveness eases the pain and suffering:

When we ask for forgiveness, we are asking someone to free us of the pain we’ve inflected on a person who we have hurt, but it also frees us of the resentments, of the anger, and the grudges we’ve carried around in our lives for years. Forgiveness makes the person who you have possibly hurt feel better and it surely relieves the load you have been carrying around. Forgiveness allows a healing for both people and it provides both of them to get on with their lives. It frees you of the constant reminder of your unforgiving ways and allows your mind to become at ease and at peace.

*Summation:

Unforgiving people end up being hard people and people who others do not want to be around. These people usually have a bad attitude and a bad personality toward others and they never feel comfortable around other people. These people will normally end up being a loner and isolate themselves from others.

It’s wise if we free ourselves of anything that is troubling us, and especially, asking forgiveness when we’ve hurt someone. Life is short and we will not have a chance to live it again in this world.
