Why I need to forgive others?

(Sitting on the wooden pier, pondering on God's greatness)




Within this week I learned two wonderful things. I've been struggling with anger lately. All that comes to make my heart even harder is self justification and seeing everyone else is wrong. Tons of reasons come in my way everytime I think about other ppl who (I think) hurt me...

I will always find excuse to hate people. There will always reasons for us to be mad at someone. People will always seem annoying and disturbing...
I am mad because she is bla bla bla, she acts bla bla bla, she treats others bla bla bla, he tricks people like bla bla bla, she tackles me bla bla bla, she hates me, he hurts me, they envy me, bla bla bla.... The list could go on and on and on.. And we seem to find right reasons to be offended and MAD.

And I found the answer in these:

1. Forgiving no matter what 

• If anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. —Colossians 3:13 (Our Daily Bread)

• When we forgive someone, we look more like Jesus than at any other moment in our life.

• Forgiveness doesn’t excuse the offense but when we forgive we show Christ to the world. “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you” (Eph. 4:32)



2. Never do self justification
• "Make a determination to take no one seriously except God. You may find that the first person you must be the most critical with, as being the greatest fraud you have ever known, is yourself." - Oswald Chambers

• I rewatched fireproof movie, and was reminded by unconditional love...
"Love is love when it's given to the most undeserved, like me. Thus I shall share the very same love unconditionally, unceasingly..." 😊 amen....



Hestin, you are stubborn, judgemental, uneasy to love, sinful, undeserved, envious, unhappy, confuse, sick, proud, and all the worst of human being can be...

But Jesus loves you unconditionally. Why would it be hard to forgive people around you? Why is it so difficult to love people around you?

You have the unlimited source of love from above, and it will never be runninh out...


Do share it to the others. Especially to those in your mind who are the most "undeserved"...... Those who hurt you the most. Think about them now, and love them right away.... Amen :)


"God engineers circumstances to see what we will do. Will we be the children of our Father in heaven, or will we go back again to the meaner, common-sense attitude? Will we stake all and stand true to Him? “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” The crown of life means I shall see that my Lord has got the victory after all, even in me.  The Highest Good—The Pilgrim’s Song Book, 530 L"

Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. John 4:34
