Remember Jesus loves you I don't know what happened but maybe you needed to be reminded he still is with you Kinda just got the feeling hope everything is ok
A few years ago my mom sold her house & I went back to help her pack up. I had lived in that house from third grade through college. As I lay in a sleeping bag on the floor of my old empty room, I thought about my experiences in that house. Joys, pain, cold wars, whispers in the bedroom, eventual divorce. As I lay there sobbing, it was like I washing away the sting of those memories. Thank God He blessed me with a loving husband of 35 years and 6 great kids. I can forgive and II am redeemed!
I couldn't have found a better song to fit with my current situation. I come from a broken home, and I have often blamed it on my father. All the wrongs he's done to me, I have found it most difficult to forgive him. As a growing Christian, I preach forgiveness to everybody I know, but until now i never could forgive my father. Through this song and God's grace I have finally been able to forgive my father for leaving and hurting my family so much. I forgive you dad. Matthew 18:21-22.
I've been adopted from Romania...I had a cataract. I am blind in my right eye.. I've been bullied, been abused, taken and given punches, felt like nothing, and done nothing Not a day when by that i didn't feel terrible. I wondered why my parents gave me up. I wondered why i wasn't worth love. I struggled with being accepted.. I only basally talk in Sign Language so n one can talk back to me. I broke down just now with this song.. God, can you help me forgive everything like you forgave me?
Another reason we need forgiveness is because this world is full of hate. That's why we have wars and countries hate eachother. We can show others and Lead by example just as Jesus did.
When someone asked Jesus how many times they should forgive the same person, Jesus just simply replied with 7X70. When he said that, he did not mean literally 490 times, he meant infinity amount of times.
My dad was so difficult to love growing up. But through my relationship with dad, God has taught me what it means to have forgiveness and unconditional love. Although we had many, many, difficult days as a family, I bless God for the lessons I learned over the years because I'm better able to apply love and forgiveness in every aspect of my life now like at work and in other relationships. "There's healing in this house tonight" Praise God, my dad's heart has changed for the better because of the love we showed him and prayer. We have the occasional struggle but I can honestly say now that am proud to be his daughter.
I know someone I need to forgive, I did forgive her, but I still had a lot of pain from what she did... When he sang: "God picked up my heart and helped me through, He shined a light on the one thing left to do... And that’s forgive you, I forgive you!" -I just started crying, and I could basically just hear Jesus saying: "Come lean on me, My arms are open wide, they are waiting to hold you..." -His peace flows like a gentle river, and His peace passes all understanding! ALWAYS FORGIVE! :)
"I have be living in this house here, since the day that I was born" You realize that he is not only talking about his house there, but God's House, God's kingdom. He has been in God's house since the day he was born. God had a plan for him, and was and always is in complete control. God knew us and had a plan for us before we were ever formed in our mother's womb.
I come from a broken family, my mom died when i was three, my sister got token away, my dad meet a women that is my step mom now, at first I had a good childhood then everything started 2 fall apart in tenth grade my mom and dad started 2 drink again and then I moved out a year ago, ever since my mom and dad don't talked 2 me anymore, thanks 2 God he forgave me and know I talked 2 my sister again :-)
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered him, "I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy times seven.
"I thought the pain was here to stay, but Forgiveness made a way". . .I'm not from a broken home, but, in over 52 years, my parents have never been on the "same page" even though they're both believers. It's caused a lot of heartache in our family. By God's grace, I pray the legacy I'm leaving with my wife for our kids is something they won't feel like they have to forgive "7 x 70" or more. . .Thank-you, Chris, for reminding us that God's forgiveness makes a way-THE WAY, in fact!-Blessings. :)
My dad drove up to see my sister, my nieces and I this weekend. This year I have decided to forgive him. I resented him for a couple of years and he would ask about me. I know deep down he has emotions but they were taken from him as a child by abuse. I have finally learned that I can't change him and that if anything he needs our forgiveness for his own demons. For the first time in a long time I felt peace and compassion all over me and was able to give him a genuine hug and kiss. I didn't feel no anger at all or resentment and I was so happy. We went out and spend time together eating and joking around. I was happy to be enjoying time with my family. He told me he loved me and even though his love is limited to his selfish narcissistic ways I can say that's enough. What's enough is that I love him and that I will pray to God for him to one day forgive himself. He has had self pity most of his life with his selfish ways but I pray for him and thank God for making a way for me to feel free. I will start building a relationship with him and one day share with him the love that God has for him just as he does for all of us. Forgiveness is hard but I have learned that it's all God's will. The Lord has been good to me in other ways and gave me a mother that was there to make sure we didn't go hungry, had clothes on our back and love. The Lord is good.
+Lana Anton You're welcome Lana. I have noticed that the way I felt has also happened to children that have had a dad in the home. We all go through these very sad times in our lives but forgiveness really brings peace to your heart. Only God can give you that understanding and he knows we need forgiveness to pull through.
I thank God that you WROTE this song and went to that place that hurt you.. because it gave me HOPE today... I can see that my sons would be encouraged with this and it encouraged me also... This song played on the radio yesterday when i was at one of my lowest points of my life and it gave me hope and strength... Praise God for your obedience to write it.. and let people get blessed by it.
Did you know: *_7_* *_×_* *_70_* *_times_* is actually symbolic for *infinity* ? Jesus wants us to forgive completely and infinitely which sounds impossible! But in Him and with Him nothing is impossible❤
This song always makes my day. A lot of people come from broken homes. Myself included. My father chose drugs and alcohol over me. I am still working on forgiving him. I know by God's good grace eventually I will. Thanks to Chris August for giving us a song to help with the healing of being part of a broken home.
've struggled with my past longer then I'd like to state. After leaving home at 15, I was torn. I knew God as a child, and I can say that it's Him, who saved me. I still struggle with forgiveness, but am working hard. This song I recently heard on our local radio and it burst me into tears the moment I heard it. God has used you to write this song, not only for me, but for many wounded souls. Now with 4 children of my own, God has made me the mother I've always wanted to be, that mine wasn't:-)
I put this one song on a cd and gave it to my dad. This song has given me peace and has caused me to forgive him for everything he put me through. I thank God and Chris August for this song
Lyrics: I've been living in this house here Since the day that I was born These walls have seen me happy But most of all they've seen me torn They've heard the screaming matches That made a family fall apart They've had a front row seat To the breaking of my heart 7 times 70 times I'll do what it takes to make it right I thought the pain was here to stay But forgiveness made a way 7 times 70 times There's healing in the air tonight I'm reaching up to pull it down Gonna wrap it all around I remember running down the hallway Playin' hide and seek I didn't know that I was searching For someone to notice me I felt alone and undiscovered And old enough to understand Just when I'm supposed to be learning to love You let me down again 7 times 70 times I'll do what it takes to make it right I thought the pain was here to stay But forgiveness made a way 7 times 70 times There's healing in the air tonight I'm reaching up to pull it down Gonna wrap it all around I lost count of the ways you let me down But no matter how many times You weren't around I'm alright now God picked up my heart and helped me through And shined a light on the one thing left to do And that's forgive you I forgive you 7 times 70 times If that's the cost, I'll pay the price 7 times 70 times I'll do what it takes to make it right I thought the pain was here to stay But forgiveness made a way 7 times 70 times There's healing in this house tonight I'm reaching up to pull it down Gonna wrap it all around Yeah, I'm gonna wrap it all around I've been living in this house here Since the day that I was born
God is good. I met Chris last year and i told him about my music. Its been a crazy ride since. I pray that Gods will be done in my life. We fall but we have to get back up. Thank you Chris and God bless. I look up to you and everyone in the Christian music industry. Glory To God Forever
I guess what broke my heart the most is,, I don't think my dad went to heaven. My life was a living hell till we left him. I was too scared to ever go back. I guess he's the reason why I believe in God. I was born in a tragic situation, and there was no place to go, and no one to turn to. All I had was God, which was the only thing that I needed to begin with. God made a way out of there, He wont give you more than you can handle, and towards the end, it was way more than we could handle.
I have learned something to be very true. That most of the friends I have had have turned out to be enemies, and the ones I once trusted the most are the ones who have hurt me the most, yet God tells me to forgive them even when they hurt me the most. Lord, How many times am I suppose to forgive my brother when he wrongs me, till seven times? I say not until 7 times, but until seventy times seven. I would like for everyone to believe in that verse so we all could be forgiven, healed, and set free through the forgiving heart of Christ lived in us.
This song really reminds me of my moms life.. Her mom had three husbands, two of which were extremely abusive.. She is the second oldest of 9 kids and her dad was the only nice father. He was only around for a couple years. She had to move so many times, she never finished a year at the same school. She WAS alone. She became the mother of the family. Her life was living hell. I don't know how she did it. But she found God in her life and has become the best and most amazing person Ive ever met.
I can relate to this so much...Every day my parents would argue and yell when I was younger. There isn't a day that I can remember in which they didn't yell at each other. I used to dread the moment my dad would come home from work. It eventually led to their divorce, but I have forgiven both of my parents, especially my dad and it took that forgiveness to move on. God showed me that I couldn't grow spiritually without forgiving him.
My kids grew up the same way. Their dad and I always fighting. I thought I was doing the right thing by staying because I wanted them to have both parents. But I did more harm than good. Leaving didn't help the situation either. I lost my kids for 2 1/2 yrs. My daughter still can't forgive me or her dad, even though he has since passed away. Unhappy marriages do so much harm. There's no right answer. My kids and I are slowly coming back together. My relationship with my new husband is day-by-day. But we have Jesus and His divine mercy and grace. And as the saying goes "There, by the grace of God, go I."
It's good to pray when you are younger, cause god speaks to you in a very young age.. Whenever they argue, you should Pray each time when they fight with each other... I always pray when I'm in trouble for something I haven't done... or being blame for... or pray for others..
My mom said this song reminded her of me. Note, my mother daughter relationship was more on the lines of a covert narcissist and a scapegoat black sheep family dynamic, with my golden child brother and codependent alcoholic dad. I felt like a kitten who had been grabbed by the throat and chucked against a brick wall. Then picked up petted and kissed then thrown again into the hard brick wall. To only be approached again by mother dearest who yet again pertended to love me only to hurt me when she found me at my most valuable. I forgave her and still forgive her. But the scars and hurt still remain. She's always out to get me for some reason. She's always been against me but I could never understand why. I finally decided that I didn't need to know why. Because I did get to choose my parents or children. God chose them specifically for me. I like who I am and I have no regrets. But this song does kinda hit home with me.
This reminds of when I was 2 years old. As I was growing up when I turned 13 my mom told me...that my dad denied me saying I wasn't his. It hurt...It hurt bad but I'm 15 now and I'm over it all was forgiven. Did it take a while? Yes, it did but.. Anything is possible.
This song reminds me how God is still there to give I a second chance no matter how many times I fall. To be honest, a lot of times when I try to make things right, I get scolded, making me very indecisive and somewhat introverted. So in the midst of all my suffering and the few times of happiness, it's easy to forget God is still there, waiting for you to come back to him, and ask of him to...
This song really struck me cause even though I know that I was with God already but still my flesh is weak that I cant control it I just keep sinning but despite of this this song reminds me not to give up coz I know that God will always forgive me no matter what that He is ready to accept me again even if there so many times I stumble down. This song really helps me to realize to keep securing my place in God's kingdom and will not lose a grip on it. Lord help me to get out from this ugly situation that I have right now.
Joey Cagud Keep pushing Joey. Read your Bible, pray, go to church, hang out with people who have a positive and good influence on your life. GOD can only do so much, we have to do our part as well. I understand how you feel, i feel like I keep failing GOD but thats just the negative thoughts from the enemy who wants to keep us tied up and bound. You CAN overcome this, but ONLY with GOD's help. GOD bless!!
I think one of the great things about youtube is reading other comments..... And from the looks of this group, I would say we are in GREAT shape. I agree with all your amazing comments. WHAT a true gift that GOD has given to us....Those of us can find true freedom in this song and it's words. I say, with TRUE faith comes the ability to see even when our eyes are closed. To hear his words, even when we choose not to listen........And TRUST in our GOD. he will show us the way...GOD BLESS..
I love this song because growing up was hard. I'm not saying my dad didn't provide for us, because he did and I'm thankful for that. But I hurt mentally and emotionally because my dad is one of those guys that believes in tough love. I always afraid to talk to him, fear of him yelling at me, believing that anything I may say may make him maf, and even now as an adult I fear that he may one day disown me. He wasn't an easy man to deal with. There's just a lot of pain even now today that has been hard to deal with.
This song came to my mind a couple of weeks ago. For 13 years i have had unforgiveness towards my husband. But im now learning and its a process to forgive since its been years and holding in so much pain its been hard. Im still married from this day. Life is very hard my marriage is falling apart. But its in Gods hands now. Please pray for my family! Thank you and God Bless!
I never knew why this was my older sister's favorite song. But now I can see why😭😭 we've definitely had our ups and downs. But I still love her no matter what happens!!
For any people who might be hurting, or not able to forgive the people you love, listen to this song, and read your bibles. Jesus teaches us, how can we expect forgiveness from Him, if, we cannot forgive those who we feel may have hurt us, it could be as simple as a misunderstanding..... I love you guys!! LEARN TO FORGIVE, TO ME, IT'S SECOND IN LINE TO LOVING!!!!!!!!!! and there are many songs out there on forgiveness, SEARCH FOR THEM!!! music soothes the soul.....
i love this song my parents are divorced and they both moved on so fast and my dad has a girlfriend and I just don't know what to do any more I can relate to this song so much it brings me to tears every time I hear it
Is it just me or does this need about 3 million more views??? I thank my best friend for showing me this song. She is my everything and she doesn't know it. But 7x70 "I'll do what it takes to make it right", to make her mine.....
Im 13 almost 14 and its crazy my birthday is in the month that is ur last name!! I absolutely LOVE this song and also starry night!!!! Thank u 4 these wonderful songs!!! Plz pray 4 my sister shes goin thru some hard things :( :( thanks :) :)
My father died early this month. I just listened to this song. The house that my heart took it as was not the house that I grew up in as much as my own body. There was a lot of mixed feelings between me and my father. Some hurt and a lot of unforgiveness from me. But this song broke me down as I was doing paperwork for work. God is a healing God. Amen.
This song is really powerful. I prey that people who has been hurt, like in this lyric, could listen to this song and realize that God is always there to help us getting thru.
I came from a broken home but I never had it as bad as my other friends that came from broken homes.. I grew up with my mum that raised me as a Christian. No matter what happened I always felt far away from God. This song always drives me to tears. Right now I'm visiting with my dad and his gay partner. Now I have nothing against the LGBT community believe me. But I would have rathered that my dad had chosen my mum instead of some random guy that he met at a bar. I know I need to forgive him for what he chose but it's really hard for me to do and I'm working on it... When I listen to this song I feel like I can forgive him but when I finally gather up the courage he lets me down again by criticizing anything and everything that I do... I try and try to forgive him but I can never pay the price of 7x70....
love this song it always makes me cry. 7x70 times do what it takes to make it right, and forgiveness made a way! ....... I love jesus and Jesus loves me
This song really helped me forgive my dad who left when I was 7. 8 years later I finally let go and forgave him. Matthew 18:21 is my FAVORITE scripture!!!
I know i posted part of my testimony on this earlier.But i just want to say. My best friend just died. His father called me,i hang out with him as much as i can cause he's cool and he needs someone,is parents are divorced. He told me that he was involved in a car accident about an hour ago,and he broke his neck.He was paralyzed and unresponsive when the paramedics arrived. The father told me he was on his was home from church. pray he was forgiven. lease pray he made it to heaven. R.I.P Kevin.
I was so angry, and sad at the same time. It's still an empty feeling when I look back. He was the reason why we lived in poverty. During the funeral, I cried in my husband's arms. I had a good feeling this man who was my dad, did not make it to heaven. He was burning in hell It was not safe to live around him the last year we were there. He stopped us from seeing our grand parents, and when I got to see them, they had died. You reap what you sow.My dad had wanted to see me those years we were
God Bless you Chris as you touch other lives thru your ministry...Beautiful song... In pain, it's often the hardest thing to do, but thank God, "Forgiveness" heals....
I did not grow up in a broken home however my father worked the late shift and was rarely home after school or before bed. I've carried resentment about him not being there for 40+ years. Through this song I was able to forgive and let go of that resentment. I love & miss my dad very much, RIP daddy.
7 years ago, I was depressed and had nightmares. Thanks God for saving my life. I'm not depressed anymore. Knowing that I am loved makes a difference in my life. Whom you would like to change, you must love first. To God be the glory!
This is for Greg who posted 3 months ago. You stated you couldn't forgive because you cannot forget. What you're missing out on is God's forgiveness. If you can't forgive, then God cannot forgive you. Let it go and leave it in God's hands
I posted this before. I would like to share my story to those who did not see this before. It is a true story, and I feel like people need to see this. Peace and love to all ! God bless !
I'm 46 years old and this brings up alot of pain and rememberance and I am sure so many people relate to this song. My parents were divorced when I was 5 and it affected me all my life. If you are considering divorce,..find another way. Kids don't just bounce back. They are altered until Jesus heals them! I have forgiven. The pain of it lingers. :)
Hi there...lovely song. I'm sure the Lord has ministered to several people using you as a channel. May the Lord continue to use you for the furtherance of His Kingdom. Amen.
For a while now I've been going through some tough times with family(step-dad). It came to the point where I got tired of it and I just started to break into tears, And I turned to God. I talked to my pastor about the situation I was going through, And he had to call Dyfs. It was that night when i was taken to the police station to get questioned about the situation, then it was taken care of. BUT what I believe is When somebody commits a sin in your household, that spirit will still be in your house and it'll grab somebody else and they will commit the same sin. Now that was a little background of what I'm going through, Now I believe God is starting to answer to my prayer. Guys, If you could help me that would be great. Last night I was at bible study and we were talking about spiritual war And how God will fight for us if we just ask for help. When I was asleep I felt somebody in my room. I got up and turned on my light, and i noticed a rock on my bed.. I have no idea how that got there. then I asked God "how did this get here, please lead me to an answer" That night I got no answer, so I just went to bed. When I woke up this morning, He told me to read psalm 144. When I did, I think the first 2 verses explains It. I think it means that he is fighting a spiritual battle for me. Thank you for you help and May God bless you in your features, and fight a battle for Ya'll also!
Last month we got a phone call... our sweet friend who was only twenty years young of over ten years had just been shot in of all places our church... the building isn't important but in the fellowship there we had found the ultimate refuge and my kids have run our buildings as if they were their own personal playgrounds since they could walk... and she was my daughters favorite person in the world... she was her role model... we loved her as you love your dearest, sweetest friend...
This song touches me because I've gone through a lot at home with my brother and sister being violent. Even though I'm not sure God is real or not, this song is amazing as well as his other songs.
+Keegan Megson ~ Keegan, God is real and he loves you very much. I too know what it means to live with pain but Jesus delivered me and changed my whole life. The same Jesus is there for you too. I put my story on a video at my channel, its called , Beauty For Ashes, . What he did for me he will do for you. Many blessings,
+Keegan Megson I just wanted to say that I don't know everything you've been through or where you're going, but I've been amazed in my own life how God has moved. And I really believe God is moving in your life. So, anyway, I just wanted to say I'll be praying for you that you'll keep exploring and reaching out in the direction of God. :) Hope you have an nice day.
Hi Keegan, God is really real & is showing himself plainly today. Check out THE LAST REFORMATION channel. God is using a young man named Torben Sondergaard from Denmark. Watch the free movie there titled~ THE LAST REFORMATION, THE BEGINNING...." its 1 & a half hours long & in the movie he explained how God started all this & then shows on the film all kinds of divine healings as well as cast out of people & being set free from all kinds of bondage's. After watching the movie check out the other videos on his channel as well as his website. This movement of God is spreading all over the world. You can see some of where it has spread so far on the MAP at his website~ God Bless~
I don't know if i got back to you or not, i just listened to this song, had a fallout with my family..again. And i scrolled down and saw your comment. Thank you so much.And i had it worked on when i was adopted, and i am permanently blind.I have now a sewed in contact in my right eye and i am blind in the eye. And i am sorry that has happened. You have endured through your troubles and battles. God bless your kind hear friend. You don't know how much that one message ment... honestly.. Thank you
I HEARD this song at spring fest a youth retreat where youth from 3 states from diff states come together and receive Christ. i got baptized at the age of 18 yrs old but grew up in church since the age of 6 yrs old
This song has helped me a lot. Everything it says it's true. I feel like it's my story in this song and when I found it it helped me realize that things happen for a reason 💙💜❤️
I love this song! In case anyone was wondering - that's really Chris's house. I am so glad they shot the video there, it makes the point come across even better.
So thankful for you and this song and video Chris and to God who gave us you! I'm 73 years old now, and began to learn to forgive my dad and mom, and myself!,at about 50 years of age, and...I'm still learning to forgive others!!!..... Yup!! AND "TO BE CONTINUED..."Revelations chapters 21 and 22 !!! 👀🤔
Romans 3:23 “ For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 5:8 “ But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”Romans 4:4-5 “ Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. “Jesus loves you. He died for your sins. Jesus is the only way to salvation. We can’t do a single thing to save ourselves. We are saved by faith in Jesus. If you repent from your sins Jesus is willing to forgive you. Get saved, seek Jesus not allah.
Violenny Baez So, I found this song by searching for seventy times seven by brand new, and your comment is just screamed for me to comment lyrics from jesus christ by brand new. "Jesus Christ I'm not scared to die But I'm a little bit scared of what comes after Do I get the gold chariot Or do I float through the ceiling Or do I divide and pull apart Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark This ship went down in sight of land And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands? I know you're coming in the night like a thief But I've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique I know you think that I'm someone you can trust But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up So do you think that we could work out a sign So I'll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try"
I have learnt in my life, even though I am only 16 that some time we have to forgive those who don't deserve, or ask for it; as the burden of holding onto the hatred and disgust at a persons actions, will pull your lives journey from God's path. I have found God's security in his words, through this song even. His love is so great, all consuming and powerful, surrender to him and be blessed.
I sorta know what that feels like... see my sister decided that because we were a good family with parents that teach us how to love others and forgive and be giving wonderful people and not let us as kids just run the house and do whatever we want she decided that she didn't want to live with us anymore so she went to live with her grandma. The reason I say her grandma and not our grandma is because first she wasn't MY grandma because my sister was from my dads previous marriage. Anyway after a few years of this and by a few I mean a lot of years of her crap she decided that she was sorry for what she had done and she made right with us and my parents were still a little worried cause she had just changed her mind all of the sudden but I was foolish and trusted her to tell the truth. Well shortly after this happened I got a does if reality because I realized she had lied again and I had fallen into the trap and got my hopes up again thinking I finally had my sister back but I was wrong because she lied... again... she lied when she said that she loved me when she said she was sorry when she said she'd never do that again when she said she really meant it all... and the sad thing is I as a little kid wanting to have my sister back fell for it. I got tricked and now that has made me to where now I have to know someone for a while before I trust them enough to tell them thing that are personal and truly take with them. I have I guess a little bit of a trust issue now thanks to her and everything she put my parents and I through because I'm afraid that if I tell someone something personal that I will be lied to and lose that person just to have them come back and apologize just to lie to me again. Sorry this is so long I listen to this song and I kinda hurts because I know I can never trust her again I can never have anything special with her again. I know that the Bible says to forgive and I really truly tried to forgive her but she has hurt my parents and I so much that eventually you come to a time when forgiving isn't any option anymore because you know if you do forgive you'll just get hurt again. Well I guess that's her chose she will have to answer to God for all the lies and wrong doing she has done in her life just like the rest of us one of these days and when that day comes she truly will be sorry for she wont get to spend eternity in paradise but instead in pain and sorrow. I am so happy that I can scroll through these comments and just see how many of you are children of God and have chosen to embrace it not turn away from it. Love you all and have a great weekend! :)
Grace McKenzie I think you should forgive her, but keep her at a distance. Forgiving is not trusting or being close to each other again, forgiveness is healing for you. Just keep her at a distance, just because you forgive her doesn't mean you have to trust her, or be near her. God bless you! I hope it gets better, or is better
This song.... It's the soundtrack to my life. My parents divorced when I was 5 and I lived with my mom. She became an alcoholic and I would wake up every night to her throwing glasses and fighting with her now ex-fiance. I finally had enough and moved in with my dad when I was 10. I am now 14 and I am a Christian. It took me until I was baptized (February 2011) and I dedicated my life to Christ before I forgave her. This song played a vital role in that forgiveness. Thank you Chris August!(:
I've made my life into a mess lately. This song is about how we really need to forgive others for the things they've done that really rocked our lives, and through that forgiveness our lives are healed from any bitterness or darkness that surrounds from that dark event that someone did to shake our world. I think through that message Jesus is reminding me that He forgave me life :) I doubt His love and my own for Him so much, but I know He's forgiven me and I'm free! Thank you Jesus!
We're all here for a reason. He does have a plan for you. U are worthy of love, that's why you're still here. Believe in urself, God believes in you and accepts you. A lot of people have cataracts. I have two, one in each eye. neither is operable. U can hav them removed when they're big enough. Sign language is beautiful, I wish I could speak it. It's very special. Join a nice church, they use sign language. You will meet someone that will help see you through your difficulties! God bless you!
I was torn and was by myself with my pain, but The Lord made a way for me to recover and the next year was one of the best one of my life. Praise The Lord
Every time I hear this song I forgive my dad for all the promises he said but never kept. I am trying to reach out to him. So when I listen to this song, it helps me move forward in my life.
16 people accidently hit the dislike button. This song describes my entire life and for the first time ever I actually feel like I can face the things that have been holding me back for all these years. Thank you Chris August for this song. It has truely blessed me in ways I would have never thought possible.
I always think of my dad when i hear this song.... though im only 16 years old i have had so much hurt and heartache from my father abandoning me at 10 years old....he was my world my everything but as i got older and grew stronger from all the pain i learned to forgive him for all he's done to me and my family like abandoning,breaking promises, and letting me down so much.... So I thank God for giving me the strength to forgive and love him once again
still love this song ... " God picked up my heart and helped me through, and shined the light on the one thing left to do, and that's forgive you, I forgive you "
I've finally realized what God wants from me. JUst this past week after years of fighting it I've opened my eyes. God put it right in my face with verses. I am not put here just for myself but for others to help others that had less than me. Even though I didn't have my father in my home I know who he is. I have been able to have conversations with him.I am still fighting the abandonment but now I can relate to others that have felt abandoned.I know the hate your talking about
Ask god for forgiveness 7x70 times more than you can. He will heal and clean you souls and will guide you towards heaven! I was once a kid with no cares in Jesus Christ but i have asked God for forgiveness many times and was washed the amazing Blood of Christ and was taken by the holy spirit! THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!! -Ryan Baek, a kid who believes in the wonders of Jesus Christ our lord

One year ago today, I forgave the man who hurt me and found healing from the Father. Forgiveness made a way.
Remember Jesus loves you I don't know what happened but maybe you needed to be reminded he still is with you
Kinda just got the feeling hope everything is ok
@@IsaiahFisher19 thank you so much. I'm going through a bit of a rough time, and your comment was answer to prayer. God bless you.
Oh wow
This song makes my day since August 12, 2022!
As a Christian you must forgive always , otherwise you won’t be forgiven by our father and Jesus
A few years ago my mom sold her house & I went back to help her pack up. I had lived in that house from third grade through college. As I lay in a sleeping bag on the floor of my old empty room, I thought about my experiences in that house. Joys, pain, cold wars, whispers in the bedroom, eventual divorce. As I lay there sobbing, it was like I washing away the sting of those memories. Thank God He blessed me with a loving husband of 35 years and 6 great kids. I can forgive and II am redeemed!
I couldn't have found a better song to fit with my current situation. I come from a broken home, and I have often blamed it on my father. All the wrongs he's done to me, I have found it most difficult to forgive him. As a growing Christian, I preach forgiveness to everybody I know, but until now i never could forgive my father. Through this song and God's grace I have finally been able to forgive my father for leaving and hurting my family so much. I forgive you dad. Matthew 18:21-22.
I've been adopted from Romania...I had a cataract. I am blind in my right eye.. I've been bullied, been abused, taken and given punches, felt like nothing, and done nothing Not a day when by that i didn't feel terrible. I wondered why my parents gave me up. I wondered why i wasn't worth love. I struggled with being accepted.. I only basally talk in Sign Language so n one can talk back to me. I broke down just now with this song.. God, can you help me forgive everything like you forgave me?
Another reason we need forgiveness is because this world is full of hate. That's why we have wars and countries hate eachother. We can show others and Lead by example just as Jesus did.
When someone asked Jesus how many times they should forgive the same person, Jesus just simply replied with 7X70. When he said that, he did not mean literally 490 times, he meant infinity amount of times.
My dad was so difficult to love growing up. But through my relationship with dad, God has taught me what it means to have forgiveness and unconditional love. Although we had many, many, difficult days as a family, I bless God for the lessons I learned over the years because I'm better able to apply love and forgiveness in every aspect of my life now like at work and in other relationships. "There's healing in this house tonight" Praise God, my dad's heart has changed for the better because of the love we showed him and prayer. We have the occasional struggle but I can honestly say now that am proud to be his daughter.
amen
Amen! praise the Lord!
Thank ya mam ;o) you too
Amen
Amen girl!
I know someone I need to forgive, I did forgive her, but I still had a lot of pain from what she did... When he sang: "God picked up my heart and helped me through, He shined a light on the one thing left to do... And that’s forgive you, I forgive you!" -I just started crying, and I could basically just hear Jesus saying: "Come lean on me, My arms are open wide, they are waiting to hold you..." -His peace flows like a gentle river, and His peace passes all understanding! ALWAYS FORGIVE! :)
"I have be living in this house here, since the day that I was born" You realize that he is not only talking about his house there, but God's House, God's kingdom. He has been in God's house since the day he was born. God had a plan for him, and was and always is in complete control. God knew us and had a plan for us before we were ever formed in our mother's womb.
I come from a broken family, my mom died when i was three, my sister got token away, my dad meet a women that is my step mom now, at first I had a good childhood then everything started 2 fall apart in tenth grade my mom and dad started 2 drink again and then I moved out a year ago, ever since my mom and dad don't talked 2 me anymore, thanks 2 God he forgave me and know I talked 2 my sister again :-)
God bless you I hope everything is better for you even now I'm going into tenth grade now ;)
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?"
Jesus answered him, "I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy times seven.
oh so that is where the name comes from. where is that found?
+Victoria Thomas Matthew 18:21-22
I was just about to say that.
Alexandra Comadura
Amen
Years later I'm still here 🥺🥺🥺
"I thought the pain was here to stay, but Forgiveness made a way". . .I'm not from a broken home, but, in over 52 years, my parents have never been on the "same page" even though they're both believers. It's caused a lot of heartache in our family. By God's grace, I pray the legacy I'm leaving with my wife for our kids is something they won't feel like they have to forgive "7 x 70" or more. . .Thank-you, Chris, for reminding us that God's forgiveness makes a way-THE WAY, in fact!-Blessings. :)
My dad drove up to see my sister, my nieces and I this weekend. This year I have decided to forgive him. I resented him for a couple of years and he would ask about me. I know deep down he has emotions but they were taken from him as a child by abuse. I have finally learned that I can't change him and that if anything he needs our forgiveness for his own demons. For the first time in a long time I felt peace and compassion all over me and was able to give him a genuine hug and kiss. I didn't feel no anger at all or resentment and I was so happy. We went out and spend time together eating and joking around. I was happy to be enjoying time with my family. He told me he loved me and even though his love is limited to his selfish narcissistic ways I can say that's enough. What's enough is that I love him and that I will pray to God for him to one day forgive himself. He has had self pity most of his life with his selfish ways but I pray for him and thank God for making a way for me to feel free. I will start building a relationship with him and one day share with him the love that God has for him just as he does for all of us. Forgiveness is hard but I have learned that it's all God's will. The Lord has been good to me in other ways and gave me a mother that was there to make sure we didn't go hungry, had clothes on our back and love. The Lord is good.
Divergent Spiritwolf Thank you. Yes I would love that. For now it's UA-cam haha but Jesus remains.
+Smileyyy21 What a beautiful testimony thank you for sharing.
+Lana Anton You're welcome Lana. I have noticed that the way I felt has also happened to children that have had a dad in the home. We all go through these very sad times in our lives but forgiveness really brings peace to your heart. Only God can give you that understanding and he knows we need forgiveness to pull through.
Smileyyy21 Yes only God does :) Ultimately he does.
Smileyyy21 I’m about to cry thank you for sharing that’s beautiful I’ve always been close to my dad this testimony really got me ❤️
I thank God that you WROTE this song and went to that place that hurt you.. because it gave me HOPE today... I can see that my sons would be encouraged with this and it encouraged me also...
This song played on the radio yesterday when i was at one of my lowest points of my life and it gave me hope and strength... Praise God for your obedience to write it.. and let people get blessed by it.
Did you know: *_7_* *_×_* *_70_* *_times_* is actually symbolic for *infinity* ?
Jesus wants us to forgive completely and infinitely which sounds impossible! But in Him and with Him nothing is impossible❤
This song always makes my day. A lot of people come from broken homes. Myself included. My father chose drugs and alcohol over me. I am still working on forgiving him. I know by God's good grace eventually I will. Thanks to Chris August for giving us a song to help with the healing of being part of a broken home.
've struggled with my past longer then I'd like to state. After leaving home at 15, I was torn. I knew God as a child, and I can say that it's Him, who saved me. I still struggle with forgiveness, but am working hard. This song I recently heard on our local radio and it burst me into tears the moment I heard it. God has used you to write this song, not only for me, but for many wounded souls. Now with 4 children of my own, God has made me the mother I've always wanted to be, that mine wasn't:-)
I LOVE JESUS , HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD,
amen amen.
GLORY TO GOD AND SHAME ON THE DEVIL
*JESUS CHRIST* loves you more .
I put this one song on a cd and gave it to my dad. This song has given me peace and has caused me to forgive him for everything he put me through. I thank God and Chris August for this song
Lyrics:
I've been living in this house here
Since the day that I was born
These walls have seen me happy
But most of all they've seen me torn
They've heard the screaming matches
That made a family fall apart
They've had a front row seat
To the breaking of my heart
7 times 70 times
I'll do what it takes to make it right
I thought the pain was here to stay
But forgiveness made a way
7 times 70 times
There's healing in the air tonight
I'm reaching up to pull it down
Gonna wrap it all around
I remember running down the hallway
Playin' hide and seek
I didn't know that I was searching
For someone to notice me
I felt alone and undiscovered
And old enough to understand
Just when I'm supposed to be learning to love
You let me down again
7 times 70 times
I'll do what it takes to make it right
I thought the pain was here to stay
But forgiveness made a way
7 times 70 times
There's healing in the air tonight
I'm reaching up to pull it down
Gonna wrap it all around
I lost count of the ways you let me down
But no matter how many times
You weren't around
I'm alright now
God picked up my heart and helped me through
And shined a light on the one thing left to do
And that's forgive you
I forgive you
7 times 70 times
If that's the cost, I'll pay the price
7 times 70 times
I'll do what it takes to make it right
I thought the pain was here to stay
But forgiveness made a way
7 times 70 times
There's healing in this house tonight
I'm reaching up to pull it down
Gonna wrap it all around
Yeah, I'm gonna wrap it all around
I've been living in this house here
Since the day that I was born
I was looking for lyrics thx
"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."~John 3:16
God is good. I met Chris last year and i told him about my music. Its been a crazy ride since. I pray that Gods will be done in my life. We fall but we have to get back up. Thank you Chris and God bless. I look up to you and everyone in the Christian music industry.
Glory To God Forever
I guess what broke my heart the most is,, I don't think my dad went to heaven. My life was a living hell till we left him. I was too scared to ever go back. I guess he's the reason why I believe in God. I was born in a tragic situation, and there was no place to go, and no one to turn to. All I had was God, which was the only thing that I needed to begin with. God made a way out of there, He wont give you more than you can handle, and towards the end, it was way more than we could handle.
I have learned something to be very true. That most of the friends I have had have turned out to be enemies, and the ones I once trusted the most are the ones who have hurt me the most, yet God tells me to forgive them even when they hurt me the most. Lord, How many times am I suppose to forgive my brother when he wrongs me, till seven times? I say not until 7 times, but until seventy times seven. I would like for everyone to believe in that verse so we all could be forgiven, healed, and set free through the forgiving heart of Christ lived in us.
.
This song really reminds me of my moms life.. Her mom had three husbands, two of which were extremely abusive.. She is the second oldest of 9 kids and her dad was the only nice father. He was only around for a couple years. She had to move so many times, she never finished a year at the same school. She WAS alone. She became the mother of the family. Her life was living hell. I don't know how she did it. But she found God in her life and has become the best and most amazing person Ive ever met.
I can relate to this so much...Every day my parents would argue and yell when I was younger. There isn't a day that I can remember in which they didn't yell at each other. I used to dread the moment my dad would come home from work. It eventually led to their divorce, but I have forgiven both of my parents, especially my dad and it took that forgiveness to move on. God showed me that I couldn't grow spiritually without forgiving him.
My kids grew up the same way. Their dad and I always fighting. I thought I was doing the right thing by staying because I wanted them to have both parents. But I did more harm than good. Leaving didn't help the situation either. I lost my kids for 2 1/2 yrs. My daughter still can't forgive me or her dad, even though he has since passed away. Unhappy marriages do so much harm. There's no right answer. My kids and I are slowly coming back together. My relationship with my new husband is day-by-day. But we have Jesus and His divine mercy and grace. And as the saying goes "There, by the grace of God, go I."
It's good to pray when you are younger, cause god speaks to you in a very young age.. Whenever they argue, you should Pray each time when they fight with each other... I always pray when I'm in trouble for something I haven't done... or being blame for... or pray for others..
Amen
Amen!
My mom said this song reminded her of me. Note, my mother daughter relationship was more on the lines of a covert narcissist and a scapegoat black sheep family dynamic, with my golden child brother and codependent alcoholic dad. I felt like a kitten who had been grabbed by the throat and chucked against a brick wall. Then picked up petted and kissed then thrown again into the hard brick wall. To only be approached again by mother dearest who yet again pertended to love me only to hurt me when she found me at my most valuable. I forgave her and still forgive her. But the scars and hurt still remain. She's always out to get me for some reason. She's always been against me but I could never understand why. I finally decided that I didn't need to know why. Because I did get to choose my parents or children. God chose them specifically for me. I like who I am and I have no regrets. But this song does kinda hit home with me.
This reminds of when I was 2 years old. As I was growing up when I turned 13 my mom told me...that my dad denied me saying I wasn't his. It hurt...It hurt bad but I'm 15 now and I'm over it all was forgiven. Did it take a while? Yes, it did but.. Anything is possible.
Dang so your 20 now I'm 15 how have you been now?
God loves you
That reminds me of how i longed for my daddy to hold me in his arms and tell me he loved me .i woll see him in heaven someday
This songs teaches us the power of love and forgiveness
AMEN
This song reminds me how God is still there to give I a second chance no matter how many times I fall. To be honest, a lot of times when I try to make things right, I get scolded, making me very indecisive and somewhat introverted. So in the midst of all my suffering and the few times of happiness, it's easy to forget God is still there, waiting for you to come back to him, and ask of him to...
This song really struck me cause even though I know that I was with God already but still my flesh is weak that I cant control it I just keep sinning but despite of this this song reminds me not to give up coz I know that God will always forgive me no matter what that He is ready to accept me again even if there so many times I stumble down. This song really helps me to realize to keep securing my place in God's kingdom and will not lose a grip on it. Lord help me to get out from this ugly situation that I have right now.
My God give you strength and power to overcome your sins.
Joey Cagud Keep pushing Joey. Read your Bible, pray, go to church, hang out with people who have a positive and good influence on your life. GOD can only do so much, we have to do our part as well. I understand how you feel, i feel like I keep failing GOD but thats just the negative thoughts from the enemy who wants to keep us tied up and bound. You CAN overcome this, but ONLY with GOD's help. GOD bless!!
Amen!!!!
That comment just helped me a lot and encouraged me a lot and blessed and inspired me a lot! Thank you sir! God bless!
I think one of the great things about youtube is reading other comments..... And from the looks of this group, I would say we are in GREAT shape. I agree with all your amazing comments. WHAT a true gift that GOD has given to us....Those of us can find true freedom in this song and it's words. I say, with TRUE faith comes the ability to see even when our eyes are closed. To hear his words, even when we choose not to listen........And TRUST in our GOD. he will show us the way...GOD BLESS..
I love this song because growing up was hard. I'm not saying my dad didn't provide for us, because he did and I'm thankful for that. But I hurt mentally and emotionally because my dad is one of those guys that believes in tough love. I always afraid to talk to him, fear of him yelling at me, believing that anything I may say may make him maf, and even now as an adult I fear that he may one day disown me. He wasn't an easy man to deal with. There's just a lot of pain even now today that has been hard to deal with.
This song came to my mind a couple of weeks ago. For 13 years i have had unforgiveness towards my husband. But im now learning and its a process to forgive since its been years and holding in so much pain its been hard. Im still married from this day. Life is very hard my marriage is falling apart. But its in Gods hands now. Please pray for my family! Thank you and God Bless!
I never knew why this was my older sister's favorite song. But now I can see why😭😭 we've definitely had our ups and downs. But I still love her no matter what happens!!
For any people who might be hurting, or not able to forgive the people you love, listen to this song, and read your bibles. Jesus teaches us, how can we expect forgiveness from Him, if, we cannot forgive those who we feel may have hurt us, it could be as simple as a misunderstanding..... I love you guys!! LEARN TO FORGIVE, TO ME, IT'S SECOND IN LINE TO LOVING!!!!!!!!!! and there are many songs out there on forgiveness, SEARCH FOR THEM!!! music soothes the soul.....
i love this song my parents are divorced and they both moved on so fast and my dad has a girlfriend and I just don't know what to do any more I can relate to this song so much it brings me to tears every time I hear it
I’ve been there but now I have a bigger family to love 💕
Is it just me or does this need about 3 million more views??? I thank my best friend for showing me this song. She is my everything and she doesn't know it. But 7x70 "I'll do what it takes to make it right", to make her mine.....
Thank you Lord for the awakening and for the million chances that you have given to me. I owe my life to you my LORD JESUS CHRIST!
AMEN
This is really speaking to my heart right now, Jesus is saviour those 12 people who pressed dislike should really take a good look at there life
Im 13 almost 14 and its crazy my birthday is in the month that is ur last name!! I absolutely LOVE this song and also starry night!!!! Thank u 4 these wonderful songs!!! Plz pray 4 my sister shes goin thru some hard things :( :( thanks :) :)
Stacie Baharloo u and your sister r in my prayers.
Did God help the situation? What should we pray for?
My father died early this month. I just listened to this song. The house that my heart took it as was not the house that I grew up in as much as my own body. There was a lot of mixed feelings between me and my father. Some hurt and a lot of unforgiveness from me. But this song broke me down as I was doing paperwork for work. God is a healing God. Amen.
This is song if wonderful. It makes me see all the ways I can be a better parent. Excuse me, I need to go hug them now and never let go!!!
This song is really powerful. I prey that people who has been hurt, like in this lyric, could listen to this song and realize that God is always there to help us getting thru.
His music can calm your soul not just because of his soothing kind voice but also because of the SOUL of his songs.
I came from a broken home but I never had it as bad as my other friends that came from broken homes.. I grew up with my mum that raised me as a Christian. No matter what happened I always felt far away from God. This song always drives me to tears. Right now I'm visiting with my dad and his gay partner. Now I have nothing against the LGBT community believe me. But I would have rathered that my dad had chosen my mum instead of some random guy that he met at a bar. I know I need to forgive him for what he chose but it's really hard for me to do and I'm working on it... When I listen to this song I feel like I can forgive him but when I finally gather up the courage he lets me down again by criticizing anything and everything that I do... I try and try to forgive him but I can never pay the price of 7x70....
love this song it always makes me cry. 7x70 times do what it takes to make it right, and forgiveness made a way! ....... I love jesus and Jesus loves me
This song really helped me forgive my dad who left when I was 7. 8 years later I finally let go and forgave him. Matthew 18:21 is my FAVORITE scripture!!!
I've been searching my whole life for a love like this. And everytime You found me, I'm overwhelmed.
Father and Creator of ALL, thank you for Chris August and giving us all this song.
I'm pretty sure you wrote this song right from my heart.
I know i posted part of my testimony on this earlier.But i just want to say. My best friend just died. His father called me,i hang out with him as much as i can cause he's cool and he needs someone,is parents are divorced. He told me that he was involved in a car accident about an hour ago,and he broke his neck.He was paralyzed and unresponsive when the paramedics arrived. The father told me he was on his was home from church. pray he was forgiven. lease pray he made it to heaven. R.I.P Kevin.
This song helped me through a lot back in the day
Frl
I was so angry, and sad at the same time. It's still an empty feeling when I look back. He was the reason why we lived in poverty. During the funeral, I cried in my husband's arms. I had a good feeling this man who was my dad, did not make it to heaven. He was burning in hell It was not safe to live around him the last year we were there. He stopped us from seeing our grand parents, and when I got to see them, they had died. You reap what you sow.My dad had wanted to see me those years we were
God Bless you Chris as you touch other lives thru your ministry...Beautiful song... In pain, it's often the hardest thing to do, but thank God, "Forgiveness" heals....
I did not grow up in a broken home however my father worked the late shift and was rarely home after school or before bed. I've carried resentment about him not being there for 40+ years. Through this song I was able to forgive and let go of that resentment. I love & miss my dad very much, RIP daddy.
Wow. I luv this song and of course I’m crying.
Me to.
31 people need to see the love of God, lets reach out to them. Let's reach out to everyone. Forgive, care and love one another
Excellent song! God bless your ministry Chris!
7 years ago, I was depressed and had nightmares. Thanks God for saving my life. I'm not depressed anymore. Knowing that I am loved makes a difference in my life. Whom you would like to change, you must love first. To God be the glory!
This is for Greg who posted 3 months ago. You stated you couldn't forgive because you cannot forget. What you're missing out on is God's forgiveness. If you can't forgive, then God cannot forgive you. Let it go and leave it in God's hands
I posted this before. I would like to share my story to those who did not see this before. It is a true story, and I feel like people need to see this. Peace and love to all ! God bless !
I can't say enough about this song. Love to listen to it over and over.
I'm 46 years old and this brings up alot of pain and rememberance and I am sure so many people relate to this song. My parents were divorced when I was 5 and it affected me all my life. If you are considering divorce,..find another way. Kids don't just bounce back. They are altered until Jesus heals them! I have forgiven. The pain of it lingers. :)
Hi there...lovely song. I'm sure the Lord has ministered to several people using you as a channel. May the Lord continue to use you for the furtherance of His Kingdom. Amen.

For a while now I've been going through some tough times with family(step-dad). It came to the point where I got tired of it and I just started to break into tears, And I turned to God. I talked to my pastor about the situation I was going through, And he had to call Dyfs. It was that night when i was taken to the police station to get questioned about the situation, then it was taken care of. BUT what I believe is When somebody commits a sin in your household, that spirit will still be in your house and it'll grab somebody else and they will commit the same sin. Now that was a little background of what I'm going through, Now I believe God is starting to answer to my prayer. Guys, If you could help me that would be great. Last night I was at bible study and we were talking about spiritual war And how God will fight for us if we just ask for help. When I was asleep I felt somebody in my room. I got up and turned on my light, and i noticed a rock on my bed.. I have no idea how that got there. then I asked God "how did this get here, please lead me to an answer" That night I got no answer, so I just went to bed. When I woke up this morning, He told me to read psalm 144. When I did, I think the first 2 verses explains It. I think it means that he is fighting a spiritual battle for me.
Thank you for you help and May God bless you in your features, and fight a battle for Ya'll also!
7x70x Thank you Jesus
Last month we got a phone call... our sweet friend who was only twenty years young of over ten years had just been shot in of all places our church... the building isn't important but in the fellowship there we had found the ultimate refuge and my kids have run our buildings as if they were their own personal playgrounds since they could walk... and she was my daughters favorite person in the world... she was her role model... we loved her as you love your dearest, sweetest friend...
Wow! Strong emotions and beautiful!
My dad showed me and my family with this song
to be forgiven with god 7x70x.
This song touches me because I've gone through a lot at home with my brother and sister being violent.
Even though I'm not sure God is real or not, this song is amazing as well as his other songs.
+Keegan Megson ~ Keegan, God is real and he loves you very much. I too know what it means to live with pain but Jesus delivered me and changed my whole life. The same Jesus is there for you too. I put my story on a video at my channel, its called , Beauty For Ashes, . What he did for me he will do for you. Many blessings,
+Keegan Megson I just wanted to say that I don't know everything you've been through or where you're going, but I've been amazed in my own life how God has moved. And I really believe God is moving in your life. So, anyway, I just wanted to say I'll be praying for you that you'll keep exploring and reaching out in the direction of God. :) Hope you have an nice day.
Until I see Man make Stars, Oceans, Skies, and Mountains all of Creations Shows me there is a Creator
Hi Keegan, God is really real & is showing himself plainly today. Check out THE LAST REFORMATION channel. God is using a young man named Torben Sondergaard from Denmark. Watch the free movie there titled~ THE LAST REFORMATION, THE BEGINNING...." its 1 & a half hours long & in the movie he explained how God started all this & then shows on the film all kinds of divine healings as well as cast out of people & being set free from all kinds of bondage's. After watching the movie check out the other videos on his channel as well as his website. This movement of God is spreading all over the world. You can see some of where it has spread so far on the MAP at his website~ God Bless~

I HEARD this song at spring fest a youth retreat where youth from 3 states from diff states come together and receive Christ. i got baptized at the age of 18 yrs old but grew up in church since the age of 6 yrs old
This song has helped me a lot. Everything it says it's true. I feel like it's my story in this song and when I found it it helped me realize that things happen for a reason 💙💜❤️
I love this song! In case anyone was wondering - that's really Chris's house. I am so glad they shot the video there, it makes the point come across even better.

So thankful for you and this song and video Chris and to God who gave us you! I'm 73 years old now, and began to learn to forgive my dad and mom, and myself!,at about 50 years of age, and...I'm still learning to forgive others!!!..... Yup!! AND "TO BE CONTINUED..."Revelations chapters 21 and 22 !!! 👀🤔
Best song ever May Allah accept your Prayers every one love All of you
Romans 3:23 “ For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 5:8 “ But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”Romans 4:4-5 “ Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. “Jesus loves you. He died for your sins. Jesus is the only way to salvation. We can’t do a single thing to save ourselves. We are saved by faith in Jesus. If you repent from your sins Jesus is willing to forgive you. Get saved, seek Jesus not allah.

Violenny Baez So, I found this song by searching for seventy times seven by brand new, and your comment is just screamed for me to comment lyrics from jesus christ by brand new.
"Jesus Christ I'm not scared to die
But I'm a little bit scared of what comes after
Do I get the gold chariot
Or do I float through the ceiling
Or do I divide and pull apart
Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark
This ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands?
I know you're coming in the night like a thief
But I've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I'm someone you can trust
But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up
So do you think that we could work out a sign
So I'll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try"
the day may come when you just might have to do that.
Me too
AMEN
I have learnt in my life, even though I am only 16 that some time we have to forgive those who don't deserve, or ask for it; as the burden of holding onto the hatred and disgust at a persons actions, will pull your lives journey from God's path. I have found God's security in his words, through this song even. His love is so great, all consuming and powerful, surrender to him and be blessed.
I sorta know what that feels like... see my sister decided that because we were a good family with parents that teach us how to love others and forgive and be giving wonderful people and not let us as kids just run the house and do whatever we want she decided that she didn't want to live with us anymore so she went to live with her grandma. The reason I say her grandma and not our grandma is because first she wasn't MY grandma because my sister was from my dads previous marriage. Anyway after a few years of this and by a few I mean a lot of years of her crap she decided that she was sorry for what she had done and she made right with us and my parents were still a little worried cause she had just changed her mind all of the sudden but I was foolish and trusted her to tell the truth. Well shortly after this happened I got a does if reality because I realized she had lied again and I had fallen into the trap and got my hopes up again thinking I finally had my sister back but I was wrong because she lied... again... she lied when she said that she loved me when she said she was sorry when she said she'd never do that again when she said she really meant it all... and the sad thing is I as a little kid wanting to have my sister back fell for it. I got tricked and now that has made me to where now I have to know someone for a while before I trust them enough to tell them thing that are personal and truly take with them. I have I guess a little bit of a trust issue now thanks to her and everything she put my parents and I through because I'm afraid that if I tell someone something personal that I will be lied to and lose that person just to have them come back and apologize just to lie to me again. Sorry this is so long I listen to this song and I kinda hurts because I know I can never trust her again I can never have anything special with her again. I know that the Bible says to forgive and I really truly tried to forgive her but she has hurt my parents and I so much that eventually you come to a time when forgiving isn't any option anymore because you know if you do forgive you'll just get hurt again. Well I guess that's her chose she will have to answer to God for all the lies and wrong doing she has done in her life just like the rest of us one of these days and when that day comes she truly will be sorry for she wont get to spend eternity in paradise but instead in pain and sorrow. I am so happy that I can scroll through these comments and just see how many of you are children of God and have chosen to embrace it not turn away from it. Love you all and have a great weekend! :)
Grace McKenzie I think you should forgive her, but keep her at a distance. Forgiving is not trusting or being close to each other again, forgiveness is healing for you. Just keep her at a distance, just because you forgive her doesn't mean you have to trust her, or be near her. God bless you! I hope it gets better, or is better
this song gave me the courage to forgive my father...
This song.... It's the soundtrack to my life. My parents divorced when I was 5 and I lived with my mom. She became an alcoholic and I would wake up every night to her throwing glasses and fighting with her now ex-fiance. I finally had enough and moved in with my dad when I was 10. I am now 14 and I am a Christian. It took me until I was baptized (February 2011) and I dedicated my life to Christ before I forgave her. This song played a vital role in that forgiveness. Thank you Chris August!(:
I've made my life into a mess lately. This song is about how we really need to forgive others for the things they've done that really rocked our lives, and through that forgiveness our lives are healed from any bitterness or darkness that surrounds from that dark event that someone did to shake our world. I think through that message Jesus is reminding me that He forgave me life :) I doubt His love and my own for Him so much, but I know He's forgiven me and I'm free! Thank you Jesus!
We're all here for a reason. He does have a plan for you. U are worthy of love, that's why you're still here. Believe in urself, God believes in you and accepts you. A lot of people have cataracts. I have two, one in each eye. neither is operable. U can hav them removed when they're big enough. Sign language is beautiful, I wish I could speak it. It's very special. Join a nice church, they use sign language. You will meet someone that will help see you through your difficulties! God bless you!
I was torn and was by myself with my pain, but The Lord made a way for me to recover and the next year was one of the best one of my life. Praise The Lord
Every time I hear this song I forgive my dad for all the promises he said but never kept. I am trying to reach out to him. So when I listen to this song, it helps me move forward in my life.
Never forget Jesus said the battle is already won in the name of Jesus
16 people accidently hit the dislike button. This song describes my entire life and for the first time ever I actually feel like I can face the things that have been holding me back for all these years. Thank you Chris August for this song. It has truely blessed me in ways I would have never thought possible.
the most beautiful song ive ever heard!!!!! :
saw him sing it @ winter jam this song made me cry....we truthfully serve an AWESOME God!!!!!
I always think of my dad when i hear this song.... though im only 16 years old i have had so much hurt and heartache from my father abandoning me at 10 years old....he was my world my everything but as i got older and grew stronger from all the pain i learned to forgive him for all he's done to me and my family like abandoning,breaking promises, and letting me down so much.... So I thank God for giving me the strength to forgive and love him once again
still love this song ... " God picked up my heart and helped me through, and shined the light on the one thing left to do, and that's forgive you, I forgive you "
I've finally realized what God wants from me. JUst this past week after years of fighting it I've opened my eyes. God put it right in my face with verses. I am not put here just for myself but for others to help others that had less than me. Even though I didn't have my father in my home I know who he is. I have been able to have conversations with him.I am still fighting the abandonment but now I can relate to others that have felt abandoned.I know the hate your talking about
Ask god for forgiveness 7x70 times more than you can. He will heal and clean you souls and will guide you towards heaven! I was once a kid with no cares in Jesus Christ but i have asked God for forgiveness many times and was washed the amazing Blood of Christ and was taken by the holy spirit! THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
