When you forgive than as well you must know that you must forget…for by not forgetting then you begin thinking, dwelling, and or mediatating on what someone has done..and in turn it brings back all of them feelings..all of them emotions…everything really that you felt when certain things happened to you…so when we choose to remember we as well choose to hold on…but guys we have got to let go..and let go of even the memories of it..for the bible says that as a man thinks so is he..Proverbs 23:7..for why would we ever want to remember them things anyways…but when you forgive as well make sure that you forget…because if you don’t forget then you will never forgive…because when you keep focusing on them things then it only hurts you, yourself..no one else…sure we grew from them things that happened..but as well them things are no good to remember..for that ole devil loves when we talk about what people has done to us and he loves it when we get all upset to where were crying, and angry, to where we lose all that joy that the Lord has blessed us with…see he desires that we stay there focusing all of our attention on the past and what had happened there..for how can we grow and move forward in our walks and on our journey with Jesus when our thoughts our focus and our attention is always on the past looking behind us..for in looking behind guys we can never see what’s out there in front of us…we have got to stay focused on the journey that lies ahead of us…and if we’ve truly and honestly forgiven than my is prayer is that as well we forget…and purposely and mindfully choose to forget…just let it go…don’t give that ole devil nothing..for we know what they say you give him and inch and he will take a mile…..so let go of the yesterday’s….and reach forth and grab ahold of all that is out there in front of you…for God has a great plan for each of us and our lives..Jeremiah 29:11..and we know that if we forgive we as well will be forgiven..Matthew 6:14..because as well, really we all have not always been the best in dealing with people..we all I’m sure has said things and done things..to hurt others in our lifetime..and as well we wanted others to forgive us and we wanted others to let go of what we had done or had said…so let us as well choose to forgive others as we ourselves want others to forgive us…and let choose to be free..and choose to be content…and choose to live this abundant life that the Lord died that we could and should be living…John 10:10…In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
