It is not easy for me to love people who've done something to purposefully insult me or someone I care about, but, if I remember, it is easy to pray for them and me. That I will forgive and love and change my heart and that God will help if it is His will. At least then I am doing, or trying to do the right thing. Y'know? |

Hardest thing to do, I agree. I personally believe this is the main scripture that most Christians have a hard time obeying....that includes me.  |

Loving and forgiving people that hurt you is one thing that is very hard to do. When people hurt you all you really think about is the hate or anger that you have towards them. Hate and anger towards someones does nothing but waste your life and makes you a very misserible person. Forgiving them is the right path to take for it doesn't necessarily forgive them for the act they did to you, it helps you to get over the anger and hate you felt towards them. Good post Zelana and I always enjoy reading them. *Hugs* :)  |

Let me be careful when I say this, as Im very passionate about it. I wholeheartedly believe in this scripture and believe it;s essential for wellbeing. However, I dont always achieve it myself, although I try my hardest.  |

What I do when I'm hurt very badly and to forgive is the last thing on my mind, I remember that if I don't forgive neither will I be forgiven by God for any trespasses that i do. So I pray and tell God that I wish to line up with His will and his will says i need to forgive,so by faith I forgive and I ask God to put it in my heart in Jesus name. SEE the thing is by forgiving a person by faith, at least your trying to line up with Gods word, you DONT have to associate with the person that hurt you ever again, but at least your lineing up with what God would have you to do.  |
