Forgiveness Is A Decision That You Make To Manifest Jesus In Your Heart

Matthew 6:14-15
For if I forgive people their trespasses [their reckless and willful sins, leaving them, letting them go, and giving up resentment], my heavenly Father will also forgive me. But if I do not forgive others their trespasses [their reckless and willful sins, leaving them, letting them go, and giving up resentment], neither will my Father forgive me my trespasses. [Forgiveness is a requirement. It is not an emotion or a feeling but a decision. It is not based on their deserving forgiveness any more than I deserved forgiveness. This does not mean I must trust the person. They must earn my trust. I choose to live in instant forgiveness!].
Forgiveness is a decision that we choose to do so that we can let go of our anger, pain, and resentment. We choose to let go so that we can be healed of our soul wounds and bitterness. Once we have chosen to forgive other people, our minds and hearts begin to clear as the Holy Spirit heals us.
We are able to have a close relationship with the Lord, and we are able to have relationships again with the people that have hurt us. We can guard our hearts from further hurt because we have given our hearts to God and His love and mercy brings peace and joy into our lives. We do not have to trust people with our hearts, but we can interact with them with the love of God as we are directed by the wisdom of God.
If they treat us better, then we can love them and interact with them more. If they hurt us again, we have the right to take that pain to God again for healing. We can limit our exposure to that person but still treat them with kindness and respect because we have the love of God in our hearts. We know that we cannot give them full access to our hearts again, but we handled the situation as Jesus Christ would have done, because Jesus loves all people, whether they be good or bad.
Remember to love God always, and to love yourself, for you are precious and valuable in His eyes and in the eyes of our precious Lord Jesus Christ, who gave His life as a living sacrifice to save you for himself. Jesus loves you, and we (the children of God) love you too...
If you wish to live in the love of Jesus Christ and be able to practice the gift of instant forgiveness in your life, then please repeat this prayer of repentance and salvation:
Lord Jesus, I want to know your love and I want to come into the light of the kingdom of God. I accept you Lord Jesus into my heart and I repent of all of my sins. Help me now to be the person that you always wanted me to be. I forgive everyone who has ever hurt me or who did evil and selfish things against me. Lord show me how to live as a child of God and give me the power to instantly forgive those who transgress against me, and fill my heart right now with the Love of God. Thank you Lord for your mercy and grace, and I will live my life for you forever and ever....In Jesus Name.
Hallelujah! You are Saved!
