For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. Matthew 6:14
Mercy is best understood when we have experienced it. We simply may not realize what the Lord has done for us, the high price He’s paid, until we’ve pardoned someone who wronged us.
We are eager to be forgiven but hesitate to forgive, our human nature struggles with it. But with God’s help we can.
Father, help me to forgive those that I need to forgive. It is not easy, but through You I can do anything. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Accept that you will disappoint people.
radically self-forgive yourself so that guilt and shame don't become a part of your wiring
so that you can show up and be accountable

forgive yourself...
...because if not you, then who?
nobody can care for you as much as you. we are all responsible for taking care of ourselves and easing our guilt too can come from within.
your mistake is in the past. if you're trying to do better then it's only fair you leave the guilt behind too ✨

Therefore, dark past,
I’m about to do it.
I’m about to forgive you
for everything.
— Mary Oliver, “A Settlement” by Mary Oliver from What Do We Know, Poems and Prose Poems (via Make Believe Boutique)

It can be freeing to let go of past negativity or shame and to allow yourself that forgiveness! We deserve to be compassionate towards ourselves! ✨
