Meditations on "Forgiveness"

Forgiving others is something we must take very seriously if we want to protect our sobriety.

God calls us to overcome shame by living in community with Him and with others.

We have become beloved sons and daughters of God.  This is the truth that frees us from our past life. 

Do for others what you want them to do for you.  (Luke 6:31 ERV)

Because Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross paid the price for all sin, even deliberate sin, we are promised complete forgiveness when we repent.

Unless we have the Power greater than ourselves living in us, God knows we would never be able to fulfill our promises.

Turning our will and our life over to the care of God always involves action. 

But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins. (Matthew 6:15)

Showing mercy and forgiveness is proof that we are walking in the light of God’s love, and it has brought peace to our souls and settled our hearts.

Showing mercy and forgiving others is God’s way for us to walk in His light.  This will bring peace to our souls and settle our hearts.

With God, we truly have had a spiritual awakening.

God created us to live as honourable people – honouring God, honouring others, and experiencing the joy of living as a person of dignity and honour.
