    What glasses me most about you Jimmy is that you were honest enough to confess that you hated somebody, I love that you tell the truth, and then you showed us how to overcome our weaknesses and our hateful attitude towards those who injure us so deeply. One of the reasons I have been blessed with this message is because I've been there and lately the Lord's been showing me God bless them in prayer just like you said, boy did I need that message. Because it was showing me what I was already doing and would continue to do. May you be blessed and may all our enemies and all our Herter's be blessed in Jesus name amen.

    I needed to hear this today. Thank you. God bless. You're right. I have to forgive my devistator and not have anger ,bitterness, depression, and fear towards him and instead forgive and pray for him. It is quiet the challenge though.

    I have been searching for honestly IDK even how long.. for a solution to this Exact Q you answer. Everything I've gotten so far has either been too simple to cover the Depth of my pain (Which you address the multiple types) or so "holy" that they don't account for the reality of not just the world we live in but of basic nature & common sense. This is the First & Only video that not only made sense, but didn't discredit or belittle me & my experiences, all while connecting with me on a deeper level. Thank you!!!

      Faith JAI totally me too!! 7 months later haha. My friend Treasure just made me realize that I wasn’t really forgiving my parents 💯 percent of the time. It all makes sense. Duh? And I thought I was the queen of forgiveness. Nope.
      Jimmy is RIGHT about physical pain such as arthritis or fibromyalgia like nerve pain ...it’s caused from unforgiving, emotional baggage, Pride, anger, unrepeatable sins, bitterness, fear, doubt, etc.

      I would tell you that forgiveness is necessary, and i personally know this. I have been rejected more then anyone could ever know. But when i look at my own short comeings and how much Jesus has forgiven me. Who am i not to forgive. Jesus gave his life for me. I need forgiveness dayley. Jesus is saveing my life dayley. I say to myself who am i not to forgive. So parying for everyone that hurts you. Can bring about healing. Hurting people hurt others. We serve a big God and he knows what is best. He knows everyones Hart

    Unforgiveness is only destructive if we resent someone 24/7 for a long time.
    It is not some everlasting feeling that we hold inside all the time.
    As we all have many things to do everyday, with time its power diminishes.
    Time is a good healer. And if that doesn't help, you can always try psychotherapy.
    After all, psychotherapists were sent by God as well, weren't they?

    It takes thc to not be bitter. Im trying really hard not to hate her. I never felt hate for someone who isnt white until she left me hanging and did what she did.. but i overcome it. most of all im bitter that her and him didnt do what was right because it was right but because they were forced. And chose power and lust over patriotism love and righteousness

    I get his point. But I disagree. I didn't put Him on the cross. I never had an intention of putting Him there. Jesus Himself says in thr scripture, "No one takes My life. I lay it down freely." The Pharisees intentionally tried to kill Him. But they couldn't. He laid it down for them, for me and everyone else.

      Is there a way you can leave your situation? If you've forgiven, that's great. But there's nothing wrong with protecting yourself, and demanding that person build up trust before you let them back in. I hope you can escape from your situation.

      @@KristineKSand it sucks, I understand. I too have had situations similar to this in my life. There is no shame or sin when a person removes themselves to protect themselves from an abusive situation. I would highly encourage the party on your situation to leave, and then just pray for the abuser, God is almighty, he can turn lives and hearts around. Just focus on him. He'll guide you in his truth.

      This isn't so much an issue of heaven or hell but of life on earth. If those parents don't forgive they may struggle in life, not necessarily in the life after. Not saying that I could do that though.

      This whole forgiveness thing is confusing. The bible also says in
      Luke 17:3-4 KJV
      3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and IF HE REPENT, forgive him.
      4 And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I REPENT; thou shalt forgive him.
      Some people don't care to REPENT or acknowledge that they did anything wrong. God grants forgiveness only to those that humble themselves and acknowledge their sin, confess it and REPENT from it and put their faith and trust in Jesus. He withholds forgiveness from those that keep rejecting Jesus and continuely live in sin without remorse.
      If we are to follow Jesus example, I believe we need to withhold forgiveness as well to those people that don't care to REPENT. But, we must forgive our brothers and sisters in Christ that do acknowledge their sin, confess it and REPENT from it and apologize from a sincere heart. Who also make an effort to correct their behavior and earn your trust back.
      REPENTANCE IS NECESSARY FOR THE GIFT OF FORGIVENESS!!!
      It's a gift and it shouldn't be given to anyone that just tramples it underfoot. You also don't need to forgive the unrepentant sinner for yourself either in order to heal. The bible is clear not to repay evil for evil and to leave vengeance to Him. He will see to it that they get their punishment. In order to heal from the trauma and pain that they inflicted on us, we have to give it to God to take care of. It takes time to reach that point. It's different for everyone, but eventually we will begin to see that ruminating on the trauma and pain only steals away our joy and purpose in life and then it becomes easier to let it go and give it to God to take care of. Time is everything, but we must also reach a point where we allow ourselves to fall on Jesus and to surrender it all to Him. He will take care of it and He will take care of you. He can and will heal you if you let Him. You must put your wholehearted faith and trust in Him though, and then be still and watch him work in your life. ❤🙏
      God bless you!
