Rev Dr Chris-:: Forgiveness
One of the Hebrew words for forgiveness is " Charizomai", from where we get Charis.
Charis is Grace, the outworking of a divine influence. Grace is the inspiration of joy, sweetness and kindness.
So then forgiveness is showing the kindness of joy to someone because there is a divine influence of God in you.
God made you too sweet to harbor bitterness, he made you too bright to harbor darkness.
Don't rent room in your heart to harbor other peoples mistakes, rather use that room To keep scriptures that would build you.
The scripture says in Eph 4:32 " forgive one another just as God forgave you through Christ"
You might say it's not easy to forgive... But trust me... It's more difficult to hold on to the past when the future passes you by. You are better than that.
Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others. Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about.
Forgiveness is a choice.... Just make it
