@Jim B and @amigo de christo please, no more arguing against each other on this topic. The topic is, what does forgiveness look like?

It's hard to describe what Im going through spiritually. Maybe God wants me to keep most of it to myself. It's really satisfying though. Ive been waiting for this a long time.

Thank you! It feels good to be acknowledged for spiritual beauty!!

Jeremiah 29:13 King James Version 13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Hebrews 11:6 King James Version 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them...

Something that's helping me right now: this idea popped up to pray for a sister for 30 days without telling her. So this temptation time is something Im now using to pray for another's life and situation. It's such a beautiful escape.

...Dates are kinda gross... too syrupy sweet.

Going for an unmedicated birth. Its time to start eating dates! Dates, pineapple, red raspberry leaf tea, and walking are supposed to help with delivering a baby. The tea, I will wait on till the very end, since it can induce labor. Same with pineapple. But I plan to eat six dates per day...

I try to look at the way God forgives us and feel like God expects us to forgive in a similar way...maybe. I say maybe because God's divine love often goes a lot further than we can understand. I know that when I repent and turn from my sins, God washes them away. Although I must give an...

I'm happy. So many good things in life to think about.

So glad I pushed everything aside to spend time with God. He really is the strength I need for everything else!

As soon as I get my energy back, all this stuff that is being given and accumulating and encroaching on my space is just getting purged. I don't care if it was a gift. If its taking up space and doesn't add value to my life, it's on the chopping block. After I embraced minimalism, I loved...

Hello from North Carolina!! Welcome to the forums!!

Welcome to the forums!!

I have similar temptation and struggles at times. At first I had to take drastic measures to break the habit. As in, tell someone and become accountable to them. I had to identify my triggers. For me, its always an afternoon boredom/loneliness thing. Then there are the times when the urge to...

I agree that forgiveness looks like praying for those who have hurt you in the past. Thanks for your thoughts. Jesus says in Matthew 5:44 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and...

Just watched the video. Thank you for sharing this!

Is forgiveness just not taking personal vengeance? Is it forgetting the past and being open to reconciliation? What does it look like and are there limits?

I use this as a model for praying. Love that story!

I picked mine and I began writing out prayers. She is going through a hard time right now but I saw her spirit triumphing and dancing in the face of the enemy. It was so beautiful! I don't know how it will happen but Im determined to pray until it happens.

I feel this so strongly!!!!
