I had to do it but I didn't want to,
because if I did
then did it mean that they were RELEASED
or was I being RELEASED?
Well, I did it anyway as HE asked me to do it~
FORGIVE!
And it happened.
I was UNLEASHED
from
anger & frustration & bitterness.
Just because JESUS UNLEASHED
me & you & everyone else
from being UNFORGIVEN
the moment HE was LEASHED to the cross
wearing our sins~
the small ones, the big ones, & the ones that don't even feel like sins.
Oh HE opened up my eyes to the
LOVE OF FORGIVENESS
as I read the great LOVE chapter of I Corinthians 13
and substituted the word
FORGIVENESS for LOVE
and experienced that
FORGIVENESS IS LOVE
because
LOVE IS FORGIVENESS.
Read it for yourself.
THE LOVE OF FORGIVENESS
FORGIVENESS
endures with patience and serenity.
FORGIVENESS
is kind and thoughtful.
FORGIVENESS
is not jealous or envious.
FORGIVENESS
does not brag and is not proud or arrogant.
FORGIVENESS
is not rude.
FORGIVENESS
is not self-seeking.
FORGIVENESS
is not provoked [nor overly sensitive and easily angered].
FORGIVENESS
does not take into account a wrong endured.
FORGIVENESS
does not rejoice at injustice,
but
FORGIVENESS
repsonds with the truth [when right and truth prevail].
FORGIVENESS BEARS
all things [regardless of what comes].
FORGIVENESS BELIEVES
all things [looking for the best in each one].
FORGIVENESS HOPES
all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times]
FORGIVENESS ENDURES
all things [without weakening]
FORGIVENESS NEVER FAILS
[it never fades nor ends].
(1 Corinthians 13:4-7 AMP "forgiveness" version)
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
Have you RECEIVED HIS LOVE for yourself in order to FORGIVE yourself?
Who do you need to LOVE to FORGIVE?
Because
HIS LOVE FORGIVES all~
"NO MATTER WHAT"
