“ I know God has forgiven me, but I am having a hard time forgiving myself."

Have you ever said that ?

Maybe your saying that now.

Many people find it difficult to forgive themselves.

The Love Of God ?

The Greek word For love is Agape which is God’s love & was later translated into Latin as Caritas Which is the origin of our word charity.KJV

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13:4-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.”

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1:6‬ ‭

Whoever does not love does not know God because God is love 1 John 4:8

Fear caused Peter to sink

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭14: 29 - 30‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The problem is many of us when problems come into our lives we tend to focus on the problems. From there we start complaining and then we get angry, and then we play the victim role. God‘s purpose in problems is to reveal the Revelation of Christ not move us away from him. Disobedience is not letting the problems of Life move us to him.

I have learned the secret of being content no matter what happens. I am content whether I am well fed or hungry. I am content whether I have more than enough or not enough.”Philippians‬ ‭‪4:11-12‬‬ ‭NIRV‬‬
