Do yourself a favor....forgive

Most people think that when their asked to forgive someone that their being asked to do something for someone who doesn't deserve it...the main reason God asked us to forgive is for us and because he doesn't want anything to damage our hearts, or our relationship with him. It's important to give forgiveness and show mercy because God  shows us forgives and mercy everyday. If you never forgive someone who has wronged you then your heart will never be pure and you will never be able to grow,because pain blocks your understanding. This is also why god wants us to always let him fight our battles for us.The important thing to remember is that when you hold on to being hurt and you don't forgive your blocking the love that God has for you which will make it harder for you to hear him...So always make sure you guard your heart with the love of God. And let the light of the Lord guide you because out of the heart flows life.
