A lot of times when I pray I forget to ask for forgiveness of my sins and of people who have hurt me. I often have to check my heart to see if there is any deep seeded animosity towards someone. I have been hurt alot by people in the past, and I feel I have forgiven them. I have even forgiven my ex husband for hurting me and still hurting me. I treat him with love when he hurts me, and I even pray for him. I just pray that he can learn how to forgive me. But he NEEDS Jesus to help him with that. George, How do you forgive someone? God bless! Natalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what do you do when you are the one who needs to be forgiven, and the one you have wronged you have no way of apologing too? I was on another Christian Forum, and before getting a correct understanding of a thead straight from a gal, I took my Sword (the Bible) and just started slashing I also used some other extremely harsh words, to put it mildly I was a total troll to this person, when confronted with my actions I gave a guarded apology, she deserve a total sincere apology; but I ask the Forum to cancel my account, so there is now no way to say how truly sorry I'm to this person. I keep thinking of that old love song, Say if you Happened to See the Most Beautiful Girl in the World, tell her I'm sorry. Yes she was beautiful, but her true beauty came from her being a Proverbs 31 woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trusted person looked at me straight in the eye and said, "You Know That God Has Forgiven You...So who are you not to forgive yourself?" And I will say this: Stranger things have happened...If it is needed for you to speak to this person again...God will make The Way...If it's in your heart...Go to them and pour out your heart...Ask to be reinstated so you can apologize to her... In the meantime...Forgive yourself...Like Jesus said, "Go your way and sin no more." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
