Do you feel its better to forgive others???

hello sjvg, My mentor taught me to always forgive other no matter how big or small the mistake/s being done. My mentor taught me and I've learned that ...how can I asks forgiveness from GOD when I myself cannot afford to forgive other people who have done mistakes against me. Just a thought on this...how can I/we pray to our GOD,asking forgiveness if we don't forgive those who have sinned against us right? Always forgive,so that we shall be forgiven as well.

Hi sjvg1976, I personally felt it to forgive others is best healer for mind and heart. At first, i find it difficult to forgive others. But now I feel i can readily forgive others and relieve the burden of my heart.

I can forgive any incident but not the attitude. With the unchanged attitude hurts are bound to recur. How can anyone just overlook it? I cannot.

For certain, I think it's not important to be religious but to follow all Jesus Christ teachings. If a person does that doesn't even need to go to church, in fact our church or temple should be in our heart. He told us to forgive, and love our enemies. I'm sure He was the only flawless human being to step uppon this Earth and that He is right. For a long time I tried but couldn't forgive. I kept repeating that I forgave and tried to mean it in my mind. I think it took 2 months. I don't feel anger towards the person, and I feel lighter. The best way to be unhappy is carry anger and hate in our hearts. It only poison us, not the enemy.

I find it easy. Nothing annoys an enemy most than to forgive them. If the animosity makes them feel that you are irritated by it, then show them forgiveness then they will wonder and get annoyed as to why you just don't seem to care about it. Ultimately they will leave you alone.

i do easily forgive the person even if it's a big mistake,even if they mean it or not i usually end up forgiving them,to forgive is to forget the things they have done to you give the person a chance to make it right,eventhou forgiving is really not that easy for others all i can say is leave it all up to GOD he has ways on what to do to that person who committed mistakes, so why not forgive..

Hi there sjvg1976 When someone has wronged me and it is something small then I will take a few days to get over it then I am fine but I don't discuss it with them or anything, I just get over it haha. If it is a big wrong doing then I am not forgiving and would omit them from my life completely. I can't say there are many people out there I have done that too and in fact I am struggling to think of anyone, oh apart from my ex-husband that is hahaha

Every human deserves to be forgived.Its human nature to do do mistakes.No one ever was perfect in this world and no one will be in the future.We all do one other mistakes. But one must learn from the mistake.He must take necessory actions from that mistake.If he those stupid things again.Then it cannot be justified.And he doesnt deserves a second chance to be forgived.But I personally often forgives two or three times. There are some people who cannot forgive others from making any single mistakes.They are so much hard in heart to understand and read other persons and their minds.

I will be honest and say that I do not forgive easily. I do but it comes with time as sometimes people are quick to say sorry and not really mean it. I am human and can make mistakes too, so it really depends on what was done. Forgetting is an entire different thing for me, as I can forgive but forgetting is something I do not do. I will not hold things over a person head after forgiving them but tend to on occasion remember the acts so that I do not easily fall victim again.

Yep I do feel a whole lot better and lighter after forgiving someone I am that kind of person that gets angry for a moment and forgives the other easily. I don't like to stay angry with a person for long coz I feel suffocation and uncomfortable.
