It is one thing for us to forgive but we must purpose to forgive from the heart. That is the only way we are able to let go and let God and we shall not find ourselves bringing up past issues because we forgave from the heart.

Peace talks begin when warring parties are willing to sit down in a negotiating table and make amends. God is inviting us as his his children to come to him and reason together. Our healing begins when we reach out to God and make peace with him.

Did you know that God has the capacity to forget? I don't mean forgetting you or the problems you are going through. When we sin against God, He not only forgives but also chooses of his own to forget.

It is not always easy to forgive leave alone to forget. It is God who moves hearts and heals impaired human relationships. It was not humanly possible for Esau to forgive Jacob who stole his birthright but God moved Esau's heart towards forgiving his brother instead of seeking for revenge.

Failure is a sure route towards success. When we fail we should not break like a stone and give up. We should purpose like a ball to bounce back

God warned the Israelites through Moses that their sins will catch up with them. The only solution he gave them for dealing with sin is to repent it and turn away from it. What could you be doing today that will haunt you in the coming days?

Sin committed in the past has a way of haunting us into the future. This is especially so if the sin involved hurting other people. When we confess the sin to God, He forgives but many times would also ask us to retrace our steps and make good with the people we have wronged. God is willing to give you a fresh start but you may need to reconcile with your past

Sin has serious consequences and guilt and remorse can be overwhelming. God is the only solution for sin and instead of getting hard on ourselves, let us run to God who is able to forgive and grant us a fresh start. When a child messes, it may be free knowing the Mom has already sorted the mess.

God is not just a God of second chances but also of a 100 chances. He always forgives when we go back to him in repentance. Don't write yourself off just because you have failed again and again

God gives us simple solutions to sort our complicated problems. Just like the Israelites were instructed to look at the brazen serpent and obtain forgiveness, the simple solution for sin is just confessing to obtain forgiveness
