There is so much more to forgiveness than jus the act of asking for it. True forgiveness really is a sacrifice. Let me share a story with you that will best explain it. Many years ago I was deeply wounded by some people that I loved. I know that I had disappointed them too.
When I left the relationship I carried about in my heart a real heaviness. I felt that I could not be healed unless they asked for my forgiveness and can ask for theirs. I had reached out to meet one of them, and during that time, in a heartbroken way asked for their forgiveness I know I owed them. But the other person only said "thank you."
I left that table and went on with my life. I left with a greater wound and it impacted my life for a very long time. I needed restoration, comfort and love. Even though there were times I had brief encounters with that person, there was never a mention of apology. There was such a chasm.
I was carried about with "overmuch sorrow" for many years. I felt plagued with deep entrenched feelings that God had to work in me to heal. Time has long progressed since then and He has healed me and removed the sting. I did not come away empty handed after all. In fact I learned something about forgiveness, and today the Lord brought it all to my mind.
There is much more to asking for and giving forgiveness. The one giving the forgiveness is the one who has the power and key to restoration, comfort and love esteemed. But there are some who are innocent yet ask for forgiveness of them that hurt them. They do this in hopeful hearted effort to open the door for mutual healing. Yet it is met with a cold one sided taking, and not asking for forgiveness still.
The hurt one goes on hurting when the one who hurt them will not restore them. There is hardness within them and they keep the hurt one in pain. This is part of forgiveness least practiced, therefore the greater part of the body of Christ is living in woundedness and still bleeding in pain by it's own members.
Reach out to someone you know the Lord is prompting you to say your are sorry to and ask them for forgiveness where you have hurt them. Comfort and restore them. This means more to Jesus Christ than ten thousand hours of religious works.
"I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one." ~Henry Ward Beecher
