More From Craig T. Nelson

It's forgiveness that makes us what we are. without forgiveness, our species would've annihilated itself in endless retributions. without forgiveness, there would be no history. without that hope, there would be no art, for every work of art is in some way an act of forgiveness. without that dream, there would be no love, for every act of love is in some way a promise to forgive. we live on because we can love, and we love because we can forgive.
Dream Art Love Is
The saved sinner is prostrate in adoration, lost in wonder and praise. he knows repentance is not what we do in order to earn forgiveness; it is what we do because we have been forgiven. it serves as an expression of gratitude rather than an effort to earn forgiveness. thus the sequence of forgiveness and then repentance, rather than repentance and then forgiveness, is crucial for understanding the gospel of grace.
Gratitude Expression Order
I think [forgiveness] may be the greatest virtue on earth, and certainly the most needed. there is so much of meanness and abuse, of intolerance and hatred. there is so great a need for repentance and forgiveness. it is the great principle emphasized in all of scripture, both ancient and modern. somehow forgiveness, with love and tolerance, accomplishes miracles that can happen in no other way.
Thinking Repentance And Forgiveness Hatred
Forgiveness doesn't mean that what that person did was right or that you even have to get back into a relationship with that person. forgiveness simply releases the debt they owe you so that god can release the debt you owe him. ask the lord to search your heart and show you if there is any unforgiveness blocking his blessing in your life. ask him to show you more about this gift of forgiveness so that you can walk in the freedom and victory he has for you today.
Forgiveness Block Heart
The nectar of compassion is so wonderful. if you are committed to keeping it alive, then you are protected. what the other person says will not touch off the anger and irritation in you, because compassion is the real antidote to anger. nothing can heal anger except compassion. that is why the practice of compassion is a very wonderful practice.
Real Compassion Practice
Compassion is our most important practice. understanding brings compassion. understanding the suffering that living beings undergo helps liberate the energy of compassion. and with that energy you know what to do.
Compassion Practice Understanding
Similar Quotes
Those who don't have a life filled with luxury may have a home filled with compassion, based on their choice to be content and to practice self-discipline. even when we have physical hardships, we can be very happy.
Home Compassion Self
If we have no zeal for the glory of god our mercy must be superficial, man-centred human improvement with no eternal significance. and if our zeal for the glory of god is not a revelling in his mercy, than our so-called zeal, in spite of all its protests, is our of touch with god and hypocritical.
Men Compassion Mercy
You cannot save people from themselves. all you can do is stand firmly in your hopes for them, with compassion.
Recovery Loss Compassion
The devil doesn't make us do anything. the devil, for example, doesn't make us mean. rather, when we're mean, we make the devil. literally. our actions create him. conversely, when we behave with compassion, generosity, and grace, we create god in the world.
