But yet God still forgives us. Forgiveness means that you pardon the people of their offenses. You give up all feelings of getting even. You let go of all the hurt that they have caused. You keep no record of wrongs.
Forgiveness is a choice.
Don't allow one or two people ruin your life. Several months ago, I read a story that literally broke my heart. The story was about an 18 year old girl from Texas, who was sexual abused by both of her parents. Her parents, both lawyers and very successful politicians, had been molesting her since she was 4 years old. And for 14 years, this girl did not tell anyone what her parents were doing, because they had threatened to kill her if she told.
