The Act of Forgiveness
Forgiveness frees our heart from pain and grudges, so that one can walk in the Joy of the Lord
With a heart of forgiveness the Lord can find a place in it and fill it with peace and love.
The following is a list of the benefits of forgiveness:
*Improved mental health.
*Less anxiety and stress.
*Lower blood pressure.
*Symptoms of depression.
*A stronger immune system.
*Improved heart health.
*Improved self-esteem.
*Increase spiritual maturity.
So forgiving someone when they have caused harm or pain can be difficult and hard to do, but in the long run you will benefit mentally, physically and spiritually.
The Bible says, "Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behaviour. Instead, be kind to each other, tender hearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you." (Ephesians 4:31-32)
In the Gospels we see Jesus not only teaching about forgiveness but setting the ultimate example. Jesus forgave those who crucified him, 'Father! Forgive them, They don't know what they are doing. ' (Luke 23:34).
The entire world has received the greatest gift of God through Jesus's love and forgiveness.
Won't you forgive today?
So that you can walk in true freedom and liberty
Walk good in Christ
