One of the most challenging moments in a Christians' walk is choosing to forgive. I know it sounds so simple, almost Sunday school-ish. But sometimes we get so comfortable in our pain. Unforgiveness can be a nice coat that we put on to evade responsibility and misdirect accountability.

I know I've written an article before about this. But as life progresses I find deeper truths to things I thought I already knew about.

Being a Christian is hard because God sees you in this cloak of white but you see blemish everywhere. Seeing through God's eyes is not staying in the place he took you out of but rising to the place he's called you to be.

I know one of the many things that have halted my maturity in Christ is my inability to forgive.

It's crazy how much we want others to forgive us but we're super slow in extended that same forgiveness. I have a really hard time not attaching people to what they've done or what they do. Which is wrong. It's really comical, Sinners judging other sinners for sinning differently. How wild is that?

See what I've come to realize when it comes to forgiveness. When I choose to establish what someone is, not only do I determine who I decided they're gonna be but I have placed a blemish on them. I chose to stain them and then judge them based on how I SEE them. Each offense, another mark. But, If God counted them worthy if he deems them valuable. I should have no lesser stance.

If you gave your life to love then so will I.

See when we don't forgive we take on roles that were never meant for us to execute. We are not God nor are we the ones to set in stone who is worth forgiveness or not. I think every time we encounter a situation to forgive someone, we should. Not only because we should, but because he already has.
