Forgiveness

Well another Christmas has come and gone. I'm sitting in my room listening to one of my favorite Kirk Franklin songs, Holy One. I watched a movie yesterday, Tyler Perry's Big Happy Family, a long but nice movie. In the movie Madea mentioned how people who you haven't forgave have some kind of control over you. I never understood the phrase "he who angers you controls you", but I finally do. I know that when you might be upset with someone, even if you might have thought you forgave that person and they walk into the same room as you and your whole attitude might change, you have not completely forgave that person. There is a few people in my life that I know that I need to work on forgiving, just when I thought I forgave them, I really haven't. I'm not sure how to forgive in the proper way, but I do pray that God helps me with my ability to forgive in the correct manner. A lot of people try to work on something in the new year, I guess that is one thing I plan on working on, but I'm starting today. Keeping in mind faith without works is dead, so I'm not just going to talk about it, but I plan on doing something about it.
