"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner
was you.” ~ Lewis B. Smedes
For so many it seems impossible to
truly forgive someone and move on....
Forgiving yourself and others can be
very difficult sometimes: especially if you are operating on a lower state of
consciousness. Realize that in order to rise up, advance, and become a more
conscious person, you must be compassionate and forgiving towards yourself and
others. Any hateful thoughts or pent up negative emotions that you may be
holding need to be released. Negative thoughts and emotions can easily lower
your level of consciousness if you do not practice compassion and forgiveness.
Forgiveness
In the manifested universe, only the
use of forgiveness can facilitate the transmutation of un-perfected energies.
The sincere pardon of your own mistakes in addition to the errors and faults of
others acts as a magic gift that liberates releases and heals situations and
events in the lives of all of those involved.
Without exercising forgiveness, one
will not experience transformation. Without transformation, there is no
evolution.
Forgiveness of others is essential to
mental peace and radiant health. You must forgive everyone who has ever hurt
you if you want perfect health and happiness. Forgive yourself by getting your
thoughts in harmony with divine law and order. You cannot really forgive
yourself completely until you have forgiven others first. It is known in the
medical field that resentment, condemnation of others, remorse, and hostility
are behind a host of maladies ranging from arthritis to cardiac disease. They
point out that these sick people, who were hurt, mistreated, deceived, or
injured, were full of resentment and hatred for those who hurt them. This
caused inflamed and festering wounds in their subconscious minds, and "as
above so below" "as within so without". There is only one
remedy. They have to cut out and discard their hurts and the one and only sure
way is by forgiveness.
To Understand all is to Forgive all
When you can understand the creative
law of your mind, you will stop blaming other people and conditions for your
misfortune and unhappiness. You have to accept responsibility for your own
thoughts and feelings knowing that externals are not the cause of your life
experiences. No one has power over you like the Bible says - "For as a man
thinketh in his heart, so is he" PROVERBS 23:7.
AFFIRMATION: "I AM the Law of
Forgiveness of the Transforming Flame, for all the mistakes I committed, I
release them now." and so it is
