    No one will hurt you out of wisdom or out of love, they always hurt you out of their ignorance or brokenness. That was profound .

    All forgiveness does not end with reconciliation. Sometimes we will be requested to forgive and go separate ways. I went through an ordeal that caused extreme mourning and I was not given the opportunity to reconcile. Barriers were put up, conversations were very surface, communication was only through text and social media and in every encounter, I felt as if I was apologizing over and over. God told me to forgive in my heart and move forward. It was never a conversation that was, "I miss our friendship"! I always felt like it was a brick wall. So I choose freedom and I'm moving on. I love them and wish them well but I can no longer remain in mourning. God has something better for me to experience.

    Sometimes hearing forgiveness preached is hard when you're hurting but its necessary. Knowing how much Christ forgave me...it's impossible to hold onto unforgiveness towards somebody else

    Thank you so much, the father of my child left me, moved on so many times, and I have been single ever since..been keeping tabs on him and he looked so happy and I am still lonely and single. Tonight the pain was too much to bare, felt like I was forgotten by God, I felt stuck with a baby. But this message spoke to my heart💖 I will praise You God even these trying times.

    This is such good topic talk on because so many people have this problem of forgiveness and what don't realize they are only hurting themselves not other person. Then that's unforgiveness turn into hate so that's even bigger problem We can give devil room in heart we have have do what God requires out of us is to forgive those who has hurt us. because if he say he can forgive them so how do we as child of God not do the same

    She said what your heart is set upon you worship. That title is incorrect. Besides you can focus on your job or task but that doesn't mean that you worshiping your job or your task. But if your heart is said upon your job or your kids or whatever then you begin to worship that entity.

I am still hurt by him which is why I can't see him or talk to him, we only communicate thru text. I want to forgive him, but we will not be friends...one day, we will divorce and I can move on with my life...pls pray for me.
