Quotes about Forgiveness

When someone hurts you, does you wrong, if you keep thinking about it, then you're letting them continue to hurt you. Don't give them your power. You have to let it go and give it to God.

The Bible says, "See that none of you repays another evil for evil, but always aim to show kindness and seek to do good to one another and to everybody.

Keep your mind on the positive. Think on things that are good, wholesome, uplifting. It's not productive to think about something negative that was said about you, relive how that person walked away, rehearse all the pain & disappointment, go back over all the sorrow.

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." Isaiah 43:18—19

He sees every time you are hurt. He keeps the records. If you learn to stay on the high road and don't waste time trying to pay back those who've hurt you, God promises to be your vindicator. God will release favor and promotion in your life only when He knows your character can handle it. If you get upset every time somebody wrongs you and you try to vindicate yourself, you will not reach the place where God wants you to be.

God says He will pay you back double for the unfair things that have happened. That person who did you wrong and thought they were hurting you—the truth is, they were helping you. They qualified you for double.

Being offended, upset, and frustrated over what didn't work out will only keep you in mediocrity. It's time to drop it and move forward. You may be a product of your past, but you don't have to be a prisoner of your past.

Maybe right now you can't see how to overcome an obstacle, accomplish your dreams, or forgive someone who hurt you, but understand that when you get there God will hand you the ticket. He purchased it two thousand years ago on a cross at Calvary.

You have to accept that some people are not going to be for you and that's okay. You don't need them to fulfill your destiny. Your job is to guard your heart. Don't let the offense, the bitterness, the poison get in. You do your part and God will do His part.

What am I saying? Don't complain about that person who betrayed you. If they walked away, they didn't set you back; they set you up. If that had not happened, you wouldn't get to where you're supposed to be. If they overlooked you, tried to push you down, and lied about you, it may not have been fair, but nothing happens by accident. If God allowed it, He knows how to use it for your good.

Where is the love that will overlook a person's faults?

Are you writing off someone because they don't believe, they're not making good decisions, they're against what you stand for? Start sowing seeds of love, showing mercy instead of judgment.
