Anababy’s Mini-Lesson on Forgiveness By Stacy Ann Hixon
When I felt no worth, you paid it all for me. You have been so so kind to me ~ Cory Asbury Dearest Pals, Today, my message IS just a wee bit lyrical. It’s just that I’m SO excited to talk about this MIRACLE: FORGIVENESS And not only in the sense of forgiving someone else, but also in the sense of forgiving YOURSELF. If you’ve made some poor choices in the past... PLEASE give yourself just a wee bit of slack! Guilty feelings are NEVER, EVER any fun. When guilt takes over, you’re back to square one! Feelings of condemnation are certainly NOT God’s plan. Ever think that He might kind of, sort of understand? God loves each and every single one of us! Surely, it’s not his intent to fight and fuss. Nevertheless, let me prove it to you. Just open your bible to...
Ephesians 4:32
So, it’s certainly clear to see, that forgiveness is a gift that’s already been given to you and me! And now that your sins have ALREADY been forgiven, your VERY best life, YOU can be ‘livin’! Showing compassion and kindness to others is the HEART of this verse. And since I love Beauty and the Beast, allow me to reflect on that well-known curse. Beast, for his selfish and cruel nature, was bound by a spell. And THIS is the MOST important detail... Only by LOVING another could Beast escape. Thank heavens for Belle, because loving her, changed his fate! So how does all this relate? There are two MAGIC Keys! Just use them to access these gifts FREE: Compassion—> Forgiveness Kindness—> Love When you think about this, it’s really not that odd! Although I LOVE fairytales, we shouldn’t forget, NO ONE loves us more than God! So just move forward in COMPLETE confidence, with the KNOWLEDGE that LOVE and FORGIVENESS are FREE and HEAVEN SENT!
Be kind & compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as Christ God forgave you.
