A young man had lived his life in regret ever since he received Christ. His challenge is neither that he made the wrong choice, nor has things ever worked out negatively but remembering his past life, he ask himself ” Can I ever make a restitution?? ”
He has lived all these days even after he got Salvation in reminiscent of his stealing life. He remembers particularly of a family he stole from. He had thought severally to go for apology and forgiveness yet their countenance would wisper in him a feeling of unforgiveness in their heart.
The effects of this isn’t a prove that they actually won’t forgive him, nor have forgiven him but prevents him from forging ahead in his relationship with God- forgiving others.
Do you have similar feelings??
Am not forgiven, how can I forgive others?
Common he doesn't deserve showing mercy.
If you’re in such situation, be free. Your salvation frees you from every guilt and curse. Look to the one who has called you and the purpose for your call. That’s most significant. Don’t be caged by yours or people’s feeling but press on to achieve the goal.
I count not myself to have apprehended but this one thing I do, forgetting the past and reaching forward to that which lies ahead. I press on towards the mark of the high calling for which God has called me through Christ Jesus. Phil. 3:13-14
Forgiving others is paramount in our race of faith whether they deserve our mercy or not. For while we were yet sinners(still in sin) Christ died for us at the right time. Rom. 5:6
Don’t be deterred from moving forward, forgive, love, show mercy and grace ahead. For we owe no man(saved and unsaved) nothing but love. Rom 13:8
By this the world will know ye are my disciples if ye love one another just as I have loved you. John 13:35.
Even when others don’t forgive, let’s forgive.
Grace!
