Personal Experiences

I myself have never been one to hold continual anger / hatred towards anyone. And amazingly...I've pretty much always had inner peace.

For many years my Mom had recurring dreams etc...of things that happened when she was younger, and these things caused her much depression, anger etc... A few years ago the Good Lord compelled me to tell her that she needed to forgive. The next time we talked I asked her about this, and she said that she prayed to do just that.

She never had another dream etc...

Jesus' OWN words...

Matthew 6:14-15 14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
