 NIGHTLY FORGIVENESS

“For if you forgive humans their trespasses, your heavenly God also will
forgive you.” Matthew 6:14

I invite you to begin a new nightly practice of forgiveness. 

This is a mental treatment that is guaranteed to cure most of what is
wrong in your life.

Sit for a half-hour every night and mentally forgive everyone that you
have anything against. If you are afraid, or if you have a bad opinion
about anything, mentally ask forgiveness of it and send it thoughts of
love. If you have accused anyone of injustice, if you have criticized or
gossiped about anyone, withdraw your words by asking in the silence of
prayer for forgiveness. If you have had a falling out with friends or
relatives, if you are in a legal battle or engaged in contention with
anyone do everything in your power to end the separation. See all things
and all persons as they really are by asking God to allow you to see from
a higher vantage points in your own human mind. Send everything your
strongest thoughts of love in prayer. Do not go to bed any night feeling
that you have an enemy in the world.

Be thankful not to think a thought, or to say a word, that will offend. 
Be patient, loving, and kind under all circumstances. You can do this if
you are faithful to this silent half-hour of prayer. You will be helped
directly by God to overcome the selfishness of the lower human self.

God is love, and love is manifest as life. God is then manifest in and
through all of God's creations. If we cut off the love of any person we
are cutting off the love of God; we are cutting off the life that flows
through all.

When we, by withdrawal, cut the cords of love that binds us together as
humans, we at the same time sever the arteries and veins through which the
universal love flows. Then we find ourselves mere bundles of strained
nerves, trembling and shaking with fear and weakness and finally withering for
the seeming lack of God's love. But God is ever seeking to flow into us and to
stimulate us in every part of our mind and body. We must, however, by our
words and actions acknowledge this all-powerful presence as the moving
factor in our lives, because each of us has inherent free-will which
welcomes, or rejects all, including God.

Self-condemnation is also a great error that leads to withering results. If
you have accused yourself of ignorance, foolishness, fear, or sickness you
are wrong. If you have accused yourself of poverty, anger, jealousy, or
stinginess you are wrong. If you have accused yourself of ambition,
weakness, or if you indulge in the "blues" ask for help to release these
thoughts from God in whose image and likeness you spiritually have perfect
life. Forgive yourself daily for thinking such bad thoughts about
yourself.

I encourage you to join us in the practice of Daily Forgiveness. 

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I do now sacrifice these human limitations to You. I surrender
my strong will for Your loving will. I agree to be obedient to the law of
Your love. I know that with the power of Your love coming through me I am
brave, true, energetic, wise, pure, perfect, strong, rich, and courageous.
Thou art my almighty resource, and I do trust in You utterly and
completely.  

In Jesus Christ's name....Amen
