We can all agree that at some point of our lives we have
been wronged, mistreated or lied to. One
of the downfalls of life is that we can’t control how others treat us. As a result
of being hurt, we hold grudges, distance, and cut off the ones who wronged us.
But Kings and Queens how does holding grudges benefit us? I am pretty sure the person or people you are
mad at are sleeping like a baby at night, unbothered or unaware about how them
hurting you has affected you. Holding
grudges/ anger is like drinking poison and excepting the other person to die. –Buddha
It is important Kings and Queens that we forgive others, not
because they deserve forgiveness, but because we deserve peace. Being angry at
someone hurts only you. Let go of your anger, not for the other person, but for
yourself. Remember, forgiving doesn't mean forgetting. Forgiving means
accepting that it happened. Even though the act of forgiving may not come easy
to us, as Christians and children of God we must be obedient to our father and
forgive others as he has always forgiven us. (Colossians 3:13) It is ok to feel
anger and want justice for the person we need to forgive. That is why we have
this wonderful thing called Prayer!!!!!
Kings and Queens pray for the person you need to forgive. Ask God to
deal with the injustices and for God to judge the person's life. Then leave that prayer at the altar. No longer
carry the anger!!!! Although it is normal for us to feel anger toward sin and
injustice, it is not our job to judge the other person in their sin. Luke 6:37: Do not judge and you will not be
judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be
forgiven. (NIV)
Kings &Queens
always remember Forgiveness is an attribute of the strong! Release yourself
from anger and hurt and find JOY J
