I find if I've done all I can, I remind myself of this verse over and over until I've convinced myself to let it go. God doesn't enjoy our self-condemnation because it gets in the way of friendship with Him.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13762184589450048019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3408770078778834889.post-18365056468780879612012-06-11T12:31:16.919-04:002012-06-11T12:31:16.919-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.akquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12063791630325179662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3408770078778834889.post-30837629645354692952012-06-11T12:27:20.199-04:002012-06-11T12:27:20.199-04:00That makes perfect sense.

But, what about when you feel you messed up and you can't go to that person and ask forgiveness and after asking God for forgiveness you still don't feel forgiven?<br /><br />I really enjoy your pondering and always have. Thanks for writing some down.<br />Love ya, Maryakquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12063791630325179662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3408770078778834889.post-90722797247997594012012-06-11T09:35:58.821-04:002012-06-11T09:35:58.821-04:00That's funny because I, too, did something at ...That's funny because I, too, did something at church yesterday that gnawed at me all day. But I didn't feel like I needed forgiveness, just a chance to clarify things. I'm still mulling over what I need to do about it.<br /><br />Previous to that, I had another incident with a couple of people where I found out I really did offend them. I immediately went to them, talked it over and asked forgiveness. One of them said it wasn't necessary but accepted my apology. The other ignored my apology. Yes, we can't be responsible for how they receive it, but at least we know we've done everything within our ability to make it right.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02141964895351084213noreply@blogger.com
