Find the peace and self-love you seek by forgiving and being forgiven.
Entertain the possibility that there are only two root sources of being.
In binary code, it is Love (1) and Not Love (0).
There is Love, and the awareness of the absence of Love, or Not Love.
Love exists as a positive response to the world. Not Love can create negative reactions to the world. These two states of being define all relationships throughout our lives. They give birth to a myriad of emotions and responses.
"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and to realize that the prisoner was you."
Louis B. Smedes“
We can become prisoners of our own thoughts, of our own resentments. What we fail to recognize is that in setting others free through forgiveness, we are also setting ourselves free. We can be trapped in the role of warden keeping tabs on the offenders – reliving real or perceived injustices. The offending parties are unaware of their prison cells. We become Judge, Jury, Warden. And if we seek revenge, the Executioner.
The Great Forgive comes forth from the Soul. The Great Forgive is received by the Soul. There is no in-between . 'I'm sorry' is not enough when the psyche needs healing. My journey in writing The Great Forgive has led me down many paths. Not all paths taken were followed willingly. When the heart is wounded, you have no choice but to follow where the healing paths lead you. To see where my paths have led me, visit www.lillianflowers.com
I offer a FREE interactive LECTURE on Forgiveness the 4th Saturday of every month at 9am at the Buzz Cafe, Oak Park, IL.
Workshops are scheduled bi-monthly at the Garrett Wellness Center, Chicago, IL
My ministry is dedicated to helping the heart to heal, guiding those in need of Forgiveness to be open to receive it. And to those needing to forgive to be open to letting go of resentments. Add you name to the Forgiveness Prayer List to be included in my Forgiveness meditations.
The Great Forgive is the fortuitous product of my spiritual journey to wholeness. I sought freedom from pain only to discover the path of Forgiveness. The Binary Code (1) Love and (0) Not Love has to start with Self.
