Forgiveness is an essential part of our spiritual lives, and more than that - it's a command! But it's not always easy. Join us today for a practical, hands-on episode about how you can invite God into a ten step process of forgiveness.
Here are the ten steps:
1.Acknowledge your anger
2.Acknowledge your hurt & disappointment
3. Admit what your fear is
4. I’m sorry that I....(what you’re missing)
5. What I really wanted was...
6. Gratitude (things surrounding the issue or “even though” prayers)
7. Love (prayers - I love ___ - even if you have to add an “even though”) Power in stating it before God. Go deeper: what do you love about this person?
8. Compassion - try to empathize with their side/where they’re coming from.
9. Forgiveness itself - review the last steps and move forward and saying I forgive ______.
10. Appreciation : the debrief - note if you feel different, appreciate the release, appreciate Gods forgiveness. The lid you put on this process.
