January 28th - Forgiveness and saying Sorry - Pastor Danny Phillip of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches in Anguilla was the guest for this show...and what a show it was.
We explored forgiveness in all it's forms...from forgiving someone who isn't sorry, to forgiving one's self, and also forgiving people who continue the hurting.
Special advice on forgiving family members was given by Pastor Phillip on forgiveness in all areas of life.
We learnt why we should apologise, and most importantly, how to forgive and forget and move on.
Host Bree Richardson ended the Show with this: To forgive means to "give up" to let go...It also means to restore oneself to basic goodness and health...When we forgive, we are willing to give up resentment, revenge and obsession...We are willing to restore faith not only in ourselves, but in life itself...So focus on offering forgiveness TO the person who has wronged you...To not forgive them is like taking the poison (continuing to suffer for what they did or didn't do to you) and expecting THEM to die!
Studies show that people who forgive are happier and healthier than those who hold resentments.
In the words of Mother Theresa...who, summed it all up and said it best...If we really want to love, we must learn how to forgive.
