Forgive and forget
Grudge
is, "a deep-seated feeling of resentment or rancor." ( feeling of
ill-will)
rancor
is "bitter, long-lasting resentment; deep-seated ill will." and,
resentment
is "indignation or ill will felt as a result of a real or imagined
grievance."
If
you hold your grudge out at arms length and try to take an honest appraisal of
it, you will see that it surely is not the most important thing in your life.
Try to put your grudge into its proper perspective. What are some of the truly
important things in your life? In fact, your grudge is a little thing that you
should put behind you and forget about.
If
you do not forgive and forget those injustices, they will take root in
bitterness and poison the rest of your life.
Do
not let grudge ruin your life.
Forgive
and forget it and then move on to the really important things in life.
Mark11:25.
And
whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive
him,
that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. –
Ephesians
4:32.
And
be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as
God
in Christ forgave you.-
