Your Rx for Forgiveness - Michelle Bollom - Bog

Offense has us hold on to resentments and unforgiveness and before we know it bitter roots are formed and we keep rehearsing the hurts and offenses and it's a vicious cycle wrecking relationships and lives. Unforgiveness can actually shorten your life because serious diseases can develop as a result of the stress and pressure that offense, bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness can put on a person.Over the last few years God showed me that I can rehearse and hold on to it all or I can release it to Him. That's easy to say, but it's a process of daily continuing to release the person/s that hurt us and allow God to work in us. Forgiveness is really about obedience. We forgive because God instructs us to do so.Unforgiveness hinders our faith. Forgiveness takes practice. We have to do it daily to get it from head knowledge to heart knowing.
