Life Lessons: Forgive and Trust

Matthew 6:
¹⁴ “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. ¹⁵ But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses
 Proverbs 3:5-

⁵ Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
⁶ In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct^[a] your paths

    "If you want to receive anything from God for your life you must  forgive. In some instances, you have to ask for forgiveness."

       Is there someone that you love that you need  to forgive?  Is there someone you love that needs to forgive you?  Sometimes in life situations, we do not get the closure we need.  We still are angry or you have a lot of bad feelings.  This is when trust comes in. Regardless of what you feel or face, we have to trust God to get us through difficult times.  If we are hurt and angry, we have to trust God to help heal our hearts and let Him be our vindicator.  When we have been the one that needs forgiveness, we have to trust God to forgive us.         These two life lessons for  me go together because you can’t truly forgive if you can’t trust God to  forgive you and have your back.
