He who would not forgive must judge, for he must justify his failure to forgive. – A Course in Miracles (ACIM)
If we want to not judge then we must learn to forgive. Which means to forgive constantly, anything or anyone that irritates us, in any small or big way.
Today I AM forgiving constantly. I AM therefore at peace…

Do not forget today that there can be no form of suffering that fails to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can there be a form of pain forgiveness cannot heal. – A Course in Miracles (ACIM)
Suffering of any kind is the result of judging or holding a resentment against someone or something. Such ‘unforgiving’ thoughts are the root cause of our physical or mental suffering. Release from this suffering is very simple…
Today I AM forgiving everyone and everything. I AM free and fully released!

I place the future in the Hands of God. – A Course in Miracles (ACIM)

All is well today, all is well now and I rest easy…

There’s no blessing that can’t be a disaster, and no disaster that can’t be a blessing. – Richard Bach
blessing
Generally after a terrible event occurs we have to wait a real long time to understand what good might come from it. After the massacre in South Carolina, lo-behold there was a miracle of grace and faith. Most families simply and genuinely forgave the wielder of that horrendous and unthinkable violence. It was a great testament to their faith in God and God’s love in their life.
affirmations
Today I AM ready to forgive one and all. God gives me the strength I need to withstand the ‘terrible’ things in my life. I will survive and I will triumph when I partner with my Father!

I distinctly remember forgetting it.– Clara Barton
Clara was once asked if she remembered the wrong that was done to her in the past. She answered as above. Forgiveness is the key to peace of mind and therefore a healthy body. When we hold resentments against people and events in the past, those ‘holdings’ show up as disease in our minds and bodies.
Today I AM leaving all resentments behind and reminding myself to forgive and forget! It feels like a weight has lifted, I AM healed!!

Forgiveness means giving up all hope for a better past. – Lily Tomlin
We’re all married to the past in some fashion or another. Because of this tie to the past we consciously or otherwise are unable to forgive others or self. This is the root of most unhappiness.
Love this quote because it encapsulates the main learning when it comes to the topic of forgiveness. The past is irreversible. At some point we have to consciously recognize each fixation we have about past incidents and let go. We can then be at peace!
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM giving up all hope for a better past!
