FREE AT LAST.
Matthew 6:14-15 "For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your heavenly Father forgive your trespasses." (KJV)
Forgiveness is a challenging yet freeing act. When someone wrongs us, resentment can take root in our hearts. We nurse grudges and withhold mercy. But this bitterness only poisons our own spirit. As Jesus teaches in Matthew 6:14-15, God forgives us to the extent that we forgive others. Forgiveness is not condoning wrong acts but rather releasing others from condemnation.
As Mark Twain wrote, forgiveness is like a crushed violet releasing its sweet fragrance on the foot that injured it. This fragrance is the perfume of grace. Forgiveness sets both the forgiven and forgiver free from resentment's shackles. The one forgiven is released from fear of retaliation or rejection. The one who forgives is unbound from bitterness that corrodes the soul.
Forgiveness heals broken relationships and restores peace. It allows room for understanding, compassion and reconciliation. With open hands and open hearts, we can move forward in freedom. Where there are wounds, forgiveness brings balm. Where there is division, it enables unity. By God's strength, may we walk in forgiveness toward all people, leaving judgment to Him alone. As we release others, we too are released into new life.
