Forgive everyone

Have you ever had beef with someone and the anger that you feel inside is followed by a hint of jealousy and pride? When I don’t forgive as fast as I can all these negative feelings set in and eat away at you. More often than not I will put a stipulation of me forgiving you like I will forgive you if you do this or that. When God impresses me to forgive I try to do it as fast as possible. When this happens my pride goes away and this sense of being humble enters my heart. The largest part however is that it lifts a huge boulder off your heart and shoulders. If you are having trouble forgiving someone today then kneel and pray, ask God to help you break your hardened heart, and flood it with forgiveness. Then forget and never bring it up again
