We all signed up for this journey of human experience based upon bringing our predetermined gifts into awareness – meaning to be shared with everyone. If you have someone who needs forgiveness due to past mistakes, maybe it’s time for you to experience the power of love, for it forgives all mistakes.
Everyone in your life is a gift to be cherished; therefore, don’t waste your life holding grudges caused by egos manipulating your Higher Self. Let peace be present in every moment, and understand that desperate people sometimes do dysfunctional things. We don’t always know what’s going on in someone’s situation. Knowing that everyone is doing their best from their current consciousness may help you forgive them or yourself for trespasses against others.
We have all had someone in our lives who we believe has caused us emotional pain. It may be something they did or are not doing what they promised; whatever it was, we experienced disappointment or pain due to something deeply personal. It seems acceptable to most people to carry that emotional pain with them for an extended time frame. The problem with doing that is that it manifests as a deep-rooted fear of being hurt or disappointed again. And, the more we focus on the past negative situation, the more we give power to the dysfunctional mistake. Carrying past emotional pain lowers our energy vibration and holds us prisoner to the ego’s need for more negative emotions and stories to control us.
If you love someone dearly but have difficulty forgiving them or yourself for some past situation, open your heart and ask yourself if you are complicating your life. People often anchor negative emotions into their subconscious and do not even remember why they felt the pain in the first place. Likewise, if you have someone you have hurt in the past, maybe it’s time for you to ask for their forgiveness, too.
“A Course in Miracles” states, “Every decision I make is a choice between a grievance and a miracle.” The Higher Self will always choose love (the miracle) over fear. The Higher Self does not relate to the word fear. Typically, a grievance stands out as fear, while a miracle is always associated with love, peace, and understanding. Even when Jesus died on the cross, he said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” At the highest level of awareness, Jesus understood that people do dysfunctional things, usually caused by ego manipulation of the truth.
When we hold on to toxic negative emotions, we continue to manifest and cause more harm than whatever pain we initially felt that created it. You can overpower that fear with your natural state of peace by offering love, forgiveness, and understanding to those you have brought into your life through your energy vibration. You are the co-creator of all manifestations around you. Never forget how powerful your thoughts influence what is brought to you each day. By harboring grievances from the past, you are only holding yourself back from increasing your energy vibration.
It’s always your choice to grow and increase happiness or stay where you are today. So please consider your thoughts as they manifest your current life situation. Always remember that the power of love and forgiveness increases your energy vibration and mass consciousness.
