Tyler Perry said: " when you have not forgiven those who have hurt you, you turn back against your future. When you do forgive, you start walking forward.
We don't have a cemetery big enough to bury the hurts, offenses and the pains caused by our friend, enemies and loved ones. But to forgive we should because forgiveness is the key that releases us from the hurts and pains that chain us. Only then can we move forward and explore better opportunities. Forgiveness is the power of release.
Getting revenge makes you even with your enemy, but forgiving him puts you above him. Loving people, doing business, raising up a family all entail risks. The risk of being hurt and being betrayed but if we look at ourselves in the mirror, we are not exactly spotless either. And this is why we also need forgiveness.
Ask God for forgiveness and learn to receive him for only then could you have forgiveness to give it away. Be released and experience the fullness of living NOW and for the years to come.
Be aware, it is a reality that it is much easier to forgive an enemy than forgive a friend. And some people do forgive their enemies, but not until they are dead.
