We have heard it many times. Learn to forgive so GOD in heaven will forgive you. Last month when I had my monthly visit to my primary care physician and had my blood pressure taken she told me that it was very high and also the blood test results showed my LDL as out of range. She then gave me prescription medicine for high blood and cholesterol. In my 69 years I have never taken any prescription medicine until this time. And on top of that my doctor sent me to a cardiologist for a treadmill test and a heart scan. It just so happened that in our bible study we were discussing about forgiveness and healing and I was telling my pastor that there is someone who I cannot stand to much less care about . My pastor told me to ask her forgiveness as this may be the road to having my cholesterol and blood pressure being normal. I did call this woman and much to my surprise she does not even remember and she forgave me right then and there and here I am still harboring this unforgiveness deep inside for five years. Now back to that cardiologist, all tests had been taken and when I came back for the results I told him this,"everything is going to be okay won't it?" And he was smiling and asked me why I would say that . I told him because I know that it will be okay. He had a smile on his face, turned on his monitor and guess what? There is nothing wrong, my cholesterol and heart scan came out good. And I do not need to take those cholesterol and high blood pressure medications.
In closing, I think everyone of us has been hurt and I believe with hurt comes unforgiveness. Just learn to forgive, forget about it and move on. You will feel that heaviness that you use to carry will be lightened and you never know this unforgiveness might be the wall that prevents you from getting healed like me.
