Day 9

Heal and Move On

Cannot describe this any better.

Forgiveness doesn’t forget the wrong.

Forgiveness only releases you from the person who did the wrong.

Forgiveness only releases you from the prison of pain that the memory brings.

Forgiveness doesn’t wipe away the trauma.

Forgiveness helps you begin to heal, and in time, that forgiveness allows you to see past yesterday and into the future of tomorrow.

Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.

Matthew 18:21 & 22

For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:14-15
