Day 4
I didn't do a journal for yesterday but I did do step 3 yesterday on the ccc. Yesterday and today I've read about God's forgiveness for me and how I need to forgive myself and forgive others. I read a story about Kind David and how God forgave him even when he committed adultery and had Bathsheba's husband killed. There's no sin too big that God wouldn't forgive me for. No matter what and I've realized that forgiving myself is really important too. If I don't forgive myself I'm holding on to sin that I've already been forgiving for. When I sin and repent I just have to get up and keep moving on. Looking back to the past doesn't help me at all. Also today I've been reading how I need to forgive others and I already knew that but I didn't realize that my definition of forgiving wasn't really forgiveness. I would say that I forgave someone but in the back of my mind it was still always there and it caused bitterness between my relationship between me and them and with my other relationships. I have just really learned to let it go and treat them like I did before they sinned against me. I understand that people make mistakes. It's not fair to hold what they did against them but when I do something wrong, I want to be forgiven. I need to forgive in the same way I would want to be forgiven.
