Choose To Forgive
Often times we find ourselves holding onto weight in our lives. The weight of unforgiveness. We carry it in our soul and it trickles over to our physical being.
What weight are you holding onto today? Are you carrying around in your soul anger, bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness? Are you angry at God today over your diagnosis of breast cancer?
I found myself hurt and wounded and angry. What did I do to deserve this!! I tried to live right. I questioned God. There were instances where I was deeply hurt by someone and still am. If you live long enough it is bound to happen.
When we have been hurt or wounded, we need to find ourselves basking in the arms of Christ- where deep love, healing and restoration fills us, allowing us the liberty to forgive.
When we choose to forgive, we let go of the anger, bitterness, unforgiveness and resentments. We find a heavy load is lifted from our souls, spirits and inevitably our bodies. We walk free!!
Luke 6:37 says Judge not (neither pronouncing judgement nor subjecting to censure) and you will not be judged, do not condemn and pronounce guilty and you will not be condemned and pronounced guilty: acquit and forgive and release( give up resentment, let it drop) and you will be acquitted and forgiven and released.
Let’s pray today, “Dear Jesus, today I choose to forgive all who have hurt and wounded me. Heal me in Your love! On the cross You said “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do”. I choose to forgive as you have forgiven me! I take these hurts, these deep wounds, bitterness, resentments, all this and leave it at the foot of Your cross. Thank you, Jesus for renewing me in Your love! Thank you for showering me with your compassion! Thank you that in You, I walk free!! In Jesus Name!
In Jesus we find true freedom!! We are lovingly healed and restored in the vastness of His love for us!! His love is now so rich in us, we overflow in the abundance of His love, grace and mercy on ourselves as well as others.
Let this be our lifestyle choice! We choose to forgive… moment by moment.. day by day. Keeping our relationship tight and right with Jesus and with those around us!
Choose forgiveness! Walk free!! Now that the weight is lifted, we walk in newness of life!! New freedom!
Now Go Mo Betta Girl, walking free in His Love and conquer your world!!
