Forgiveness is a very hard subject at times to think about and to really assess in our lives. In general, we know whether we have forgiven someone or not. But there are the hard cases, when we have been deeply hurt, that forgiveness is a much more sticky issue.
So when do you know if you have really forgiven someone.
Ron Edmonson offers five indicators:
- Is the first thought you have about them not about the injury they cause in your life?
- Ask yourself: Would you help them if you knew they were in trouble and you had the ability to help?
- Can you think positive thoughts about this person?
- Do you still think of getting even with this person?
- Have you stopped looking for them to fail?
If you want to learn more about these five, head over and read Ron’s full article. Worth your time if you struggle with this issue or know someone who does.
