Let it Go!

In a perfect world, everyone would be high-minded enough to move past petty pals, scheming coworkers, and lying', cheating' mates. But when someone you love and trust hurts you, it's like taking a sucker punch to your emotional six-pack.

Withholding forgiveness is a way of doling out justice and letting the other person know that his or her bad behavior has repercussions.

But consider this: Forgiveness isn't just good for your soul, it can be good for your health too. According to research that appeared in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine, people with more forgiving personalities tend to have less stress, lower blood pressure, better sleep quality, less depression, and stronger immune systems to boot. 

Maybe that's because carrying a grudge is kind of like walking around with a 20-pound weight on your shoulders: The only person who is really being punished is you. People think forgiveness is an act of kindness toward another person.But it isn't—you do it primarily for yourself.

        Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and inspecting the other person to die...it imprisons and suppresses you...But remember you have the  power to free yourself from that prison that holds you bound. Decide today....I will be free and let it go.....Yes let it go!....sister let it go...

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

(Matthew 6:14-15)
