Before Nelson Mandela left  prison he said “As I stand before the door to my freedom, I  realize that if I  do not leave my pain, anger and bitterness behind me , I will still be in prison”.

Self imprisonment is worse than that imposed. How many are in self inflicted  pains today for lack of forgiveness.  How many of us have imprisoned ourselves inside the walls of anger and bitterness.

Holding grudges does not make you strong, it makes you bitter. Forgiveness does not make you weak, it sets you free.

Remember the Lord’s prayer in Matthew 6:9-13 with emphasis on verse 12. Forgive us… As we forgive our… Pray to leave the burdens of the day before sunset. It saves you a burden of stress and sleepless nights. It also allows healing and keeps the  heavens busy.
