Forgiveness is not a feeling or an emotion. In fact, usually, when you have been hurt or wronged, the last thing you feel like doing is to forgive. Forgiveness is a choice. Just like accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior is a choice. You can choose what is right even when it is hard. Who do you want to please, yourself or your Savior? It pleases your LORD and your Savior when you forgive, because it frees Him up to forgive you. He wants to forgive you. He died for that privilege. He wants to tell you "well done thou good and faithful servant."
The Lord's Prayer
"... and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us."
