Remember, Jesus taught us in our Lord's prayer forgive others their trespasses so our own sins can
be forgiven

Matthew 6:14-15 says,
If you forgive others the wrongs they have done to you, your father in heaven will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, then your father will not forgive the wrongs you have done.
For our sins to be forgiven we must forgive all thise who one way or the other have offended us, not minding how much or how bad they have hurt us. God's love foe mankind has covered all iniquities, just rhe way he swnt his son to die for us, so our sins can be forgiven and we should sin no more.
Keeping in mind every hurt or pain someone has inflicted on you, will weigh you down and make you lose focus on your main aim in life. Because you are always looking for a way to retaliate and not focusingon better things to do in life. Your prayer life begins to diminish, fellowship with God gets tiring and you see yourself losing faith. But Jesus has come to take our burdwn away, he said in Matthew 11:28-29
Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and i will give you rest. Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in spirit and you will find rest.

That burden of unforgiveness in our heart, that tries to weigh us down. We should go to God in prayers and ask him to give us the strength to forgive, In 1 John 1:9 , but if we confess our sins to God, he will keep his promise and do what is right, he will forgive us our sins and purify us from all our wrong doings. God's promise to forgive us if we forgive others is everlasting, because no one is free from sin. In our daily activities,we meet different people, see different things. Some of Our actions, thought, words and what we see, one way or the other makes us sin against God, God always forgive us because we are mere mortals and we are prone to temptations. When we strive hard to stay away from sin, we show God our genuine service to his existence and shows we are keeping his commandments.
Psalms 55:22 says it all
leave your trouble with the lord, and he will defend you, he never lets honest people be defeated.
Conclusión
Remember when Jesus told a parable about a servant who owed his master some amount of money, he was arrested by his master and the ordered that he be put in prison with his family but he asked for forgiveness from his master and the master let his debt pass. On his way home he met a fellow servant who owed him some money too and he grabbed him by the neck and tld him to pay him back what he owed, the felow servant begged to be guven some time to gather thw monwy but he won't take any of it. He took his fellow servant and put him in person.
When his master heard about it, he put him and his family in prison too, until he could pay what he owed. He was forgiven of his debt but failed to forgive his fellow brother. In the same way,this applies to us. For give others and your own sins will be forgiven.
We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive.
He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.
There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us.
When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.
Thanks for sharing

We believe forgiveness is the best form of love in any relationship.
It takes a strong person to say they're sorry and an even stronger person to forgive.

To forgive is divine. You have to forgive your neighbors, even if they sin against you.
For without forgiving your neighbor of the sin they committed against you, the almighty God our creator won't forgive us of our sins. You can imagine when your creator don't forgive you of your sins and his not by your side, that's very dangerous.
So you have to forgive those who sin against you,for God to forgive you of your sins.

We cannot walk through the life journey without seeing people that will offend us.
We witnessed betrayal every time.
Is not an easy thing to forgive but the God through His Holy Spirit always made it easy to forgive.
God has commanded us to forgive even 7/77 times a day.
We just have to learn how to tolerate others in other not to be offended easily and we need to keep looking unto God who is the judge.
Ours is to forgive and enjoy peace of mind and have our flow with God.

Forgiveness transforms anger and hurt into healing and peace. Forgiveness can help you overcome feelings of depression, anxiety, and rage, as well as personal and relational conflicts. It is about making the conscious decision to let go of a grudge. Why would anyone want to forgive someone who has wronged her in the past? It is not about letting someone off the hook for a wrongdoing, or forgetting about the past, or forgetting about the pain. It certainly does not mean that you stick around for future maltreatment from a boss, a partner, parent, or friend. It is about setting yourself free so that you can move forward in your own life. Joan Borysenko said in an interview, “You can forgive someone who wronged you and still call the police and testify in court.” Forgiveness requires a deep inquiry within ourselves about “our story.”

Unforgiveness always hinder us from receiving good things from the father. As God forgives us when we sin He also expect us to do same for our neighbours. whatever sins we forgive we are released from and whatever sin we don't forgive we eventually become victims of the same sin.

one thing about forgiveness is that it gives peace of mind.
We just have to forgive, the person might not worth it but because of our relationship with God and where we are going to.

Forgiveness is very paramount, letting go of the hurt, annoyance or whatever might be the cause of you being crossed with a person,forgiveness sure brings about peace in our hearts rather than the heavy burden of anger.
We do no not want to be like the servant in the parable, just as God forgive us our sins, we should be able to forgive others

Nice post, it's important to forgive but it's very important to also forget, some people forgives but end up not forgetting about it, that main of a man is deep, so it's very mandatory to forgive and forget.

Forgiveness means giving up the suffering of the past and being willing to forge ahead with far greater potential for inner freedom. Anne Lamott famously declared, “Forgiveness is giving up all hope of having had a different past.” Besides the reward of letting go of a painful past, there are powerful health benefits that go hand-in-hand with the practice of forgiveness. In the physical domain, forgiveness is associated with
lower heart rate and blood pressure as well as overall stress relief . It is also associated with improving physical symptoms , reducing fatigue in some patient populations, and improving sleep quality . In the psychological domain, forgiveness has been shown to diminish the experience of stress and inner conflict while simultaneously restoring positive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

God is the only one who can forgive us our sins any time we have gone contrary to his will.
His desire is tinder us successful in life and not to see us fail his love has always guilded those who trust in him and his mercies his been the focus in our lives.
We who call our selves Christ should always find some where in our hearts to forgive those who have done wrong to us and we should. Always be perfect and rejoice because he the lord will forgive us too.

This life is sometimes not as we want, there are times when we are hard, and there when we are happy. But this life is our own determining, where we go. But most importantly we must always be close to God, and always pray to God. Then our lives will always be happy. Thanks for sharing.. :)

Forgiveness is a staple of the Christian faith. We know that Christ died so we can receive forgiveness, and we know we’re called to forgive others. But sometimes we might not fully grasp the necessity and power of true forgiveness due to a lack of knowledge, or feelings of bitterness we haven’t dealt with

We Have to Forgive Ourselves
If God, who is sinless and without flaw, says we’re forgiven, we need to believe it. I think many of us are held back in our faith journeys, ministries, and even fail to fulfill our true destinies because we don’t really forgive ourselves for who we’ve been, or the things we’ve done in the past. The Bible says God holds not record of wrongs, yet how many times to those accusing thoughts pop into our minds reminding us of our failures and mistakes, in order to rob us of our joy and freedom. There is nothing we could do to hinder God’s forgiveness, if we repent.

The healing power of forgiveness is the key to peace, health, and happiness. Certain people deemed "unworthy" of forgiveness such as murderers, rapists, ex-spouses, parents, bad children, etc. are often excluded as candidates for forgiveness. No person is innately bad. What they have are deep, unhealed wounds and so do the rest of us.

Power of Forgiveness
hornblende (55) in steemchurch • 14 hours ago
Have you been offended by someone and you are finding it hard to forgive? Has your brother let you down in ways you didn't expect? That friend whom you trust so much has broken your heart. People around you have said a lot of things that are not true about you and you feel betrayed by all of them?
Remember, Jesus taught us in our Lord's prayer forgive others their trespasses so our own sins can

Forgiveness is the key to our eternal redemption. If Jesus had not forgiven us we would have been dead in sin.I advice us to always say the Lords prayer because it is supernaturally uplifting.

Sometimes as humans it is very difficult to forgive looking at the nature of the offence but, by those who are closer to word despite the gravity of the offence try and forgive. The Bible made us understand that GOD whom we serve has all the mercies to forgive all sins. Thanks for sharing.

We must help ourselves in this race by forgiving those who has hurt us and also ask God for the grace to forgive.
If you do not forgive others of their wrongs,do not expect in return forgiveness from God our Father.

I have always said that as other people offend us and break our hearts, so in some way we offend and we must forgive all faults. The easy to do what God commands, but a heart that does things with love for God makes the difference. Although we sin we must abhor sin as it is a law contrary to the spirit. It is very easy to get angry with our friends or family for some offense, but we must also remember that we are also on the other side and also hurt. A person taught me many years ago that many times we pray for God to do justice because someone caused us harm, but we must know that we are also enemies of someone who also prays for justice, that is why the word of God is a double-edged sword, It is better to pray to learn to forgive and forgive from the heart.

Infrequently as people it is exceptionally hard to excuse taking a gander at the idea of the offense yet, by the individuals who are nearer to word regardless of the gravity of the offense attempt and pardon. The Bible influenced us to comprehend that GOD whom we serve has every one of the benevolent actions to excuse all wrongdoings. A debt of gratitude is in order for sharing.
