So likewise shall My heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses. And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Forgiveness comes through the love of Christ , not through your own heart. You have no real love of yourselves, but mainly emotions. And they often will run high.
Love is willing to overlook.
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. To be able to forgive others comes from the knowledge of having received God's forgiveness from sin, through Jesus Christ. Those who are willing to forgive possess a godly character, for they have been forgiven themselves. Forgiving others provides the benefit of blessing the heart and soul of the follower of Christ.
