Offering Forgiveness when Forgiveness Seems Too Hard to Do

January 21- a daily inspirational commentary by James Blanchard Cisneros. Together, let us gently awaken the world.
...
If you are having problems forgiving yourself or another, if all you can feel are thoughts of judgment, resentment, anger, hatred or revenge darkening your path, then know that it is not the truth in you that is currently in control of your thinking. If you are not in control of your thinking, then you are not in control of your mind or life. Today, take back control of your life by taking back control of your thinking. You can do this by taking back control of the thoughts that you are choosing to think, support and entertain. Today, if judgment-filled thoughts pop up, recall that they have taken you nowhere that you desire to be. Stop your support of these thoughts by no longer spending your time, focus and energy on them. Now, support and fuel the thoughts that will lead you to the life you want.

Today, if the ego once again demands judgment, let us recall that the ego’s advice has never brought us to the state of peace. Then let us do the opposite of what the ego’s demands, and forgive. If we still can not find it in us to forgive, then let us ask and invite God to forgive for us. The highest part of us is one with God. Thus when God leads the way, we naturally desire to follow. Let us feel God’s forgiveness showering upon our brothers and sisters. Let us feel how freeing it feels to let go of judgment’s heavy burdens. Then let us ask God to bless our brothers and sisters for us, to bring healing to their hearts and peace to their minds. The more we practice doing so, the more natural it will feel for us to choose forgiveness over judgment, and thus peace over pain.
