Is the clothing in your memory still carrying the stain of another’s sin against you? If so, then it is time to forgive. Unforgiveness allows the stain to remain in our minds. The past cannot be changed. Our present attitude towards it can.
It is all through our thoughts. Proverbs 23:7 says, “For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he…” If you continue to believe that someone’s sin against you stained you for life, it is time to reckon it dead.
Jesus’ death on the cross paid for every sin done against us, as well as our own sins. Every believer has been fully forgiven. God’s word commands us to forgive AS we have been forgiven. With the same forgiveness we have received, we can fully and freely give it to the one who stained our garment. Does yours still hang in the closet of your past?
