Want to answer more questions in the Miscellaneous category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Spirituality?
A sermon at my church was about forgiveness. Our preacher taught us that it is the Christian way to forgive. The Lord wants us to forgive others just as he forgives us. However, this does not mean that you must forget. There will always be a rememberance of an event between you and the person that you have been holding a grudge over.
Also, if you read the Book of Esther, Haman always held a grudge against Mordecai and in the end Haman's power fell. This shows that the Lord wants forgiveness.
My Bible has little things written off to the side and this one says "God doesn't hold grudges when you do something wrong. God is eager to forgive. And God is eager for his people to follow his example of forgiveness and to not hold grudges.
I really hope that any of that helped! You can I.M. me if you need anything!!

He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
Luke 3:3
But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared
Psalm 130:4
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?"
Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
Matt. 18:21-22

Christ has forgiven you of your sins, think of it that way, how is "whatever the grudge is" bigger than Christ forgiving you ?? ..

1.Well, my favourate verse is Psalms 26 (i think thats what it is...)
2.If this doesn't help, pray and then look.
3.If you have as much trouble hearing God as me, then ask your youth pastor
4.if you don't have a youth pastor, ask your regular pastor
5. if none of this helps, go to anger management.
For my love of God,

Okay I'm sorry I just can't help much seeing that I hold grudges all the time and it doesn't phase me- it doesn't have to affect you to push people out of your life. Sometimes you just have to weed out the BS.
You have to decide what you have to gain by holding that grudge or how serious your reasons are for holding it. If you are to forgive someone they must be in the position in which they are far enough under your thumb to not repeat their error.
And besides all that don't mind all that Christian stuff. It's an unrealistic religion for hyper-sensitive Republic pussies, old people, and children. Any one with enough sens in their head just goes to church on holidays to shut the family up and then otherwise says F-IT to all that "forgive people" and do the right thing"" boring BS.
... Don't worry I still love you.

For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men for their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. -Matthew 6:14-15
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. -Colossians 3:13
Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, because judgement without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgement! -James 2:12-13
also read the stories in Genesis 50:15-20, Matthew 18:21-35

This is not frm the bible but it will help.
"resentment is the poison you drink, while you are hoping that someone else will die."
And then there's the marine saying.
Is this the hill you want to die on?
By that I mean, be sure that you want to keep this side of an issue even if it means loosing friends. Or that it is more important to be RIGHT than to be LIKED.

I don't know any Bible verses, but here's something I try to do instead.
It's easy to think "that person did something bad to me, they must be a bad person and I want them to pay for it". BUT....
They are just a person like you and me.
I've taken to asking myself WHY did they do that?
Generally it's nothing to do with you personally, it's a way they have learnt to behave maybe from their family etc OR maybe they are unhappy and don't know how to deal with it.
There can be many reasons why people behave the way that they do.
It's not to say that their behaviour is acceptable or that you have to have anything to do with them.
But just remember that all of us have times when we do things and then later we look back and think "Hmmm I'd do that differently next time". And hopefully they too will learn that their behaviour doesn't work.
To be honest let's hope that they learn sooner rather than later because THEY are the ones who are putting up barriers to living a happy, sharing and caring life.
So why not ask for light and love to be sent to those people instead of more negative thoughts. Sending love always feels better to me and hopefully helps others to find their way too.
I just say "I send you Love and Light for the highest good and the harm of none" and then let God deal with the rest.
