1.9.13

We sin, we ask to be forgiven, we receive forgiveness.  Yet we have a difficult time forgiving each other.  This came up tonight.  When people say I can forgive, but I won't forget... my question is are we actually forgiving then? Holding it in for what? Waiting for something else to happen to add to the list? Do our sins get piled up? Do we retell the same sins each time? So why can't we just forgive?  I am NOT judging what anyone else said.. because all of this has come out of my own mouth.  I spent the night holding on to anger.. and I know that doing that is dangerous to my own health.  I know that I am losing my temper and I do not want this to be me.. I know that there are moments when I just do not know anymore... and I know those are the moments .. I am supposed to say the simplest of prayers...

Dear God...

HELP.

Amen
