Forgive & Forget



Trust.
5 short letters that demands faith, commitment, and love.


I care about what people think, I care what they say about me, I care about all these things. I try not to care, I try to ignore it and live my life as happily as I can. But I can't. There's just some things you can't change. 
Trust is a big issue for me. I trust no one. Expect two.
I've been betrayed, lied too, forsaken, by people who I thought I could trust. But now I try. I try to give them a chance and become transparent again.
We all make mistakes, we all lied, gossiped, sinned against each other.
But if the ones we love, the ones we care for, came to the picture, what happens?
Anger. Rage and sorrow come. But this past day, I've been telling myself.

Forgive and Forget. Forgive the sins that people committed, for I too, am a sinner found by grace. Forget. Forget the sins and keep no record of wrong, for God doesn't judge. He doesn't condemn. He loves.


For He has written in the Holy Bible,
"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins."
                                   ~ 1 Peter 4:8


Don't care. Don't care what people think. Don't care what people say about you. Who cares if you aren't smart. Who cares if you can't sing well. Who cares if people judge you because of your looks. 


God cares.
God. Cares.


He cares for the weak, the poor, the broken. He cares for the unloved, the lost, the meek.
I'm praying that God will give me, the ability to forgive and forget. And instead, love. Love deep. Love clean. Love unconditionally.
Putting my trust, my life in the hands of God.



"In you, LORD my God,
I put my trust.
I trust in you;
do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me."

                ~Psalm 25:1-2
