The Power of forgiveness leads to closure

Hey Revolutionists,
What can I say, when the words come to me I take advantage of it because there are some days where I cannot think of one thing to write. I think this topic right here has to be the most deep that I can ever write on. I know a lot of you have been hurt out there and a lot of times instead of forgiving or finding closure you just suppress those feelings and they end up exploding at all the wrong times. The reason I can write about these topics is because I was, like a lot of women out there who just couldn't think of forgiving the people who had done me wrong.

Just about every single man who have entered my life at some point has done me wrong or lied to me or just about hurt me in some way. I could just sit here and hate them and judge them for what they did. But who told me or gave me the right to do that. It is not my job or your job to punish or judge anyone on this earth. Do you know what your job is? It is to ultimately forgive that person and that in turn will lead to closure.

Pay attention to what I say next, do not misconstrue my words or make assumptions before you have read everything. Well over the last few months things have been going really bad for me you know and really before all of it I had taken myself to the Bible. During this time (I don't want to say I had a vision) I had this feeling come over me that made me put a lot of things into perspective, I think its a part of growing up. I just had this feeling come over me that I had to make everything right in my life. I broke it off with him and I hit up the girl and basically it was more of me making it right than her. She didn't want to hear anything I had to say and I mean one day she might realize it but I had to forgive him and her and the whole situation so I could have closure. She still wasn't trying to hear it because I think she sees herself as the victim and in the situation we were in, no one was the victim. Everyone did a lot of hurtful things to each party but I am willing to let that go.

A lot of people think closure has to do with finding out everything and talking about ending it but that's not the truth. I think closure is when you finally are able to forgive that person and you know within yourself that you are ready to move on, even if they don't hit you up or say the exact words that you want them to.

I see people of different ages dying everyday and I think to myself did that person do everything in their power to be completely happy? Did they still hold on to meaningless grudges? Did they forgive? Well as of today at this very second I am typing I can truly say that I forgave everyone who has done me wrong and I have closure from it all.

If you close your eyes right now to fall asleep can you with a pure heart say that you have done everything in your power to be happy? Lets make it happen...

(Mark 11:25-26) 25 Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions. 26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions.”"
