A broken friendship that is mended through forgiveness can be even stronger than it once was.

Accomplishments don’t erase shame, hatred, cruelty, silence, ignorance, discrimination, low self-esteem or immorality. It covers it up, with a creative version of pride and ego. Only restitution, forgiving yourself and others, compassion, repentance and living...

When we forgive, the slave we free is ourselves.

The cure is as simple as this: Live your words and live your belief system.

Forgiveness and restoration are two difference acts. Forgiveness can lead to restoration but restoration is not hinged to forgiveness.

Before you can live a part of you has to die. You have to let go of what could have been, how you should have acted and what you wish you would have said differently....

We always expect God and others to forgive us, but many of us don’t have it in their hearts to forgive others. But don’t forget that an unforgiving heart knows nothing about happiness.

Have you heard of the most evil things done by people in their lifetime? They have coveted men’s wives, killed hundreds of Christians and sold their best friend’s life away for just a few coins....

If your heart is strong enough to hold grudges, then it is very capable of forgiving others. It takes more strength to hold onto something than to let it go.

When we have opened ourselves to give forgiveness or to accept forgiveness we have opened ourselves to touch the Divine.

Forgiveness is strength.The strength to move ahead without any resentment.

It is more blessed to forgive.

It is gracious to overlook and offence.

Forgiveness is the process of dropping off your emotional baggage.
