My Biggest Lesson

God has been teaching me one lesson in the past few months: Forgiveness.

I wish I didn't have to learn this lesson. I hate it. I really hate it. 

I have learned some valuable truths about Forgiveness.

1- It's hard very hard. 
2- It requires a supernatural power from God. 
3- The prisoner it frees, is you. 

I want to write and write about this topic but I do not feel like I am able. I do not have the words to describe how the God has changed my life because of this. What I do know is that if I do not forgive I am a hypocrite and a liar in my faith. I know that the world knows me by how I forgive. I know that God has forgiven me beyond what I ever deserve and if I claim to by follower of Him, I should forgive the way he has forgiven me.

I will leave you with a new song from Matthew West called "Forgiveness" He was inspired by a woman who forgave a man who killed her daughter while he was driving under the influence.
