BE FREE FROM RESENTMENT
First let me give you scriptures:
James 1:19
Now the questions, if someone has hurt you, be it your parents or someone else and you find yourself saying I will forgive, but I will NOT forget, than you have not really forgiven the problem with unforgiveness is that it is like a seed that is planted and it grows in a horrible thing called resentment, sorrow, bitterness, these things are keys that give the enemy power over us, when God forgives us He does not keep reminding us of the past he erases all sin from us, no memory of how or what we did in the past remains for Him, and he asks the same of us, once we are able to forgive and truly let go of the anger and let God start the healing process, the enemy no longer has a hold on us, because unforgiveness, resentment even have the power to make us physically sick (did you know that?).
It all starts very small, we get upset we all get upset at times but we have to forgive even if we think we are right, God will deal with the rest.
1 Peter 5:6
We have to take control of our emotions and any outburst that may arise, especially when we are upset or angry.
1 Peter 3:8
Colossians 3:8
- Are you a child of divorced parents?
- Have you felt someone’s hate towards you?
- Do you remember the past with pain in your heart?
- Has someone hurt you?
- Is there someone you have NOT been able to forgive?

Never let anger and resentment to stay in your heart, If you learn to overcome them, even your future generations will be able to overcome them. It does not matter how bad people have treated you in your life. Have this in your mind always: CHRIST already paid at the cross. (from the book: Be Free from Resentment by: Jose and Lidia Zapico.)
