Forgiveness, Healing, and Love

Sirach 51:6-8 "I was at the point of death; my soul was nearing the depths of the nether world. I turned every way, there was no one to help me. I looked for One to sustain me, but could find no one. But then I remembered the mercies of the Lord, His kindness through ages past. For He saves those who take refuge in Him." God knows us; He knows us deep within our very heart and soul. He wants us to live productive, joyfilled lives, full of love and compassion for ourselves and others. Sometimes past hurts, or things we may have done that were wrong, can stand in the way of all the blessings God wants to bestow on us. Realizing anything that may be weighing you down or burdening your heart, then taking time to change it, (through forgiveness) will open the door to a more peaceful and joyful life with God. God can help you find forgiveness and healing in your life and teach you how to love as He loves. How do I know this? Because God did it for me. Isaiah 49:28 "With shouts of joy proclaim this, make it known. Publish it to the ends of the earth and say, "the Lord has redeemed His servant." PTL
