Those who are most conscious of forgiveness are invariably those who have been most acutely convicted of their sin. ~ Sinclair B. Ferguson
Forgiveness quotes by Sinclair B. Ferguson
Forgiveness is not an easy chore to undertake, nor is it for the weak. I forgive you, God, for leaving me out here to figure out all of this on my own. Yet forgiveness is the daily minimum requirement for a healthy, fulfilling, and meaningful life. I forgive my mind for believing that what was is what always has to be. ~ Iyanla Vanzant
Forgiveness quotes by Iyanla Vanzant
We're in charge of our own forgiveness, and the process takes time, patience, and intention. ~ Sharon Salzberg
Forgiveness quotes by Sharon Salzberg
This is where happiness sneaks up on you, and you forgive evil people for unforgivable things because they give you a taste of a future you always thought was beyond your reach. ~ Laura Thalassa
Forgiveness quotes by Laura Thalassa
There is no condition for forgiveness. ~ Paul Tillich
Forgiveness quotes by Paul Tillich
I am responsible for what I see. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. I could see peace instead of THIS. The past is over it can touch me not. This instant is the only time there is. Today I will judge nothing that occurs. I am not the victim of the world I see. I can escape from the world I see by giving up attack thoughts. I am determined to see things differently. I am never upset for the reason I think. Forgiveness is the key to happiness. All that I give I give to myself. ~ Hugh Prather
Forgiveness quotes by Hugh Prather
Let us beware of the prayer for forgiveness becoming a formality: only what is really confessed is really forgiven. Let us in faith accept the forgiveness as promised: as a spiritual reality, an actual transaction between God and us, it is the entrance into all the Father's love and all the privileges of children. Such forgiveness, as a living experience, is impossible without a forgiving spirit to others: as forgiven expresses the heavenward, so forgiving the earthward, relation of God's child. In each prayer to the Father I must be able to say that I know of no one whom I do not heartily love. 'And ~ Andrew Murray
Forgiveness quotes by Andrew Murray
I would like to share with you two simple truths: there is nothing that cannot be forgiven, and there is no one un-deserving of forgiveness. ~ Desmond Tutu
Forgiveness quotes by Desmond Tutu
I believe that order is better than chaos, creation better than destruction. I prefer gentleness to violence, forgiveness to vendetta. On the whole I think knowledge is preferable to ignorance, and I am sure human sympathy is more valuable than ideology. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Forgiveness quotes by Leo Tolstoy
When you forgive, you immerse yourself in healing waters. ~ Stephen Richards
Forgiveness quotes by Stephen Richards
He had to do it in secret. He didn't want people to think he was buying forgiveness or understanding. Those two things should not be for sale, at any price. ~ Barry Lyga
Forgiveness quotes by Barry Lyga
As parents, we may as well accept that we will "lose it" at times. Perfect equanimity is beyond us. Temporary breaks in the relationship with the child are inevitable and are not in themselves harmful, unless they are frequent and catastrophic. The real harm is inflicted when the parent makes the child work at reestablishing contact, as in forcing a child to apologize before granting "forgiveness." There ~ Gabor Mate
Forgiveness quotes by Gabor Mate
Did my courage make you crazy? Cripple you with the unknown?
Did my silence create desire - make you feel things you could not discern?
Is my shinning light exploding? Can your eyes not yet adjust?
Is my forgiveness running through you? Knowing your pain I will not digest?
Is my confidence disrupting the girl you LOVE to HATE the most? ~ Coco J. Ginger
Forgiveness quotes by Coco J. Ginger
... I have dreams of you too, Mariam jo. I miss you. I miss the sound of your voice, your laughter. I miss reading to you, and all those times we fished together. Do you remember all those times we fished together? You were a good daughter, Mariam jo, and I cannot ever think of you without feeling shame and regret. Regret… When it comes to you, Mariam jo, I have oceans of it. I regret that I did not see you the day you came to Herat. I regret that I did not open the door and take you in. I regret that I did not make you a daughter to me, that I let you live in that place for all those years. And for what? Fear of losing face? Of staining my so-called good name? How little those things matter to me now after all the loss, all the terrible things I have seen in this cursed war. But now, of course, it is too late. Perhaps that is just punishment for those who have been heartless, to understand only when nothing can be undone. Now all I can do is say that you were a good daughter, Mariam jo, and that I never deserved you. Now all I can do is ask for your forgiveness. So forgive me, Mariam jo. Forgive me, forgive me. Forgive me... ~ Khaled Hosseini
Forgiveness quotes by Khaled Hosseini
Forgiveness is spiritual. Punishment is legal," Leo says. "They're not mutually exclusive. ~ Jodi Picoult
Forgiveness quotes by Jodi Picoult
The Law was given by Moses; the moral law, to discover the extent and abounding sin; the ceremonial law, to point out, by typical sacrifices and ablutions, the way in which forgiveness was to be sought and obtained. But grace, to relieve us from the condemnation of the one, and truth answerable to the types and shadows of the other, came by Jesus Christ. ~ John Newton
Forgiveness quotes by John Newton
The principle that certain sins should not receive the Church's testimony of forgiveness was probably no novelty at all, but had been applied in various churches; perhaps, however, with no strict consistency. ~ Robert Rainy
Forgiveness quotes by Robert Rainy
But loving somebody isn't perfection and good times and laughing and making love. Love is forgiveness and patience and faith and every once in a while, it's a gut punch. That's why it's a dangerous thing, when you go loving the wrong person. When you love somebody who doesn't deserve it. You have to be with someone that deserves your faith and you have to be deserving of someone else's. It's sacred. ~ Taylor Jenkins Reid
Forgiveness quotes by Taylor Jenkins Reid
It's better to ask forgiveness than permission.
- Brom ~ Christopher Paolini
Forgiveness quotes by Christopher Paolini
Forgiveness is greater than condemnation, and love stronger than hate. What is there left for us to contemplate?
-Reed Abbitt Moore- ~ Reed Abbitt Moore
Forgiveness quotes by Reed Abbitt Moore
People punish themselves - sometimes for years. But it's not always necessary. Forgiveness allows everybody to start again, not to be burdened with a whole lot of old business. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Forgiveness quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
It seems as though we Christians have developed a nasty habit of leading people into a radical encounter with God's unconditional love, forgiveness, acceptance, and union only to spend the ensuing years teaching them how to become close to God to earn his approval. ~ Ted Dekker
Forgiveness quotes by Ted Dekker
God's forgiveness is not just a casual statement; it is the complete blotting out of all dirt and degradation of our past, present, and future. ~ Billy Graham
Forgiveness quotes by Billy Graham
All great spirituality is about what we do with our pain. ~ Richard Rohr
Forgiveness quotes by Richard Rohr
I accept that I am affected by the things that affect me. I am independent and I am free. ~ James Constable B.1976
Forgiveness quotes by James Constable B.1976
You experience two kinds of guilt. One is the reality of your culpability before God. You have transgressed his law - you are guilty. The other is the sense of your corruption. You feel guilty. The first kind of guilt is true of you because everyone is a sinner. But not everyone knows the second kind. Until a person knows his guilt, he cannot know pardon. Until you feel the bondage of your guilt, you cannot find the freedom of forgiveness. In this sense, guilt is not your enemy. ~ Joe Thorn
Forgiveness quotes by Joe Thorn
Man's fall, his need of a new birth, forgiveness through an atonement, and salvation as the result of faith, these are our battle-ax and weapons of war. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Forgiveness quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
It is more noble by silence to avoid an injury than by argument to overcome it. ~ Francis Beaumont
Forgiveness quotes by Francis Beaumont
I don't want to wait anymore. I choose to believe that there is nothing more sacred or profound than this day.I choose to believe that there may be a thousand big moments embedded in this day, waiting to be discovered like tiny shards of gold. The big moments are the daily, tiny moments of courage and forgiveness and hope that we grad onto and extend to one another. That's the drama of life, swirling all around us, and generally I don't see it, because I'm too busy waiting to become whatever it is I think I'm about to become. The big moments are in every hour, every conversation, every meal, every meeting. ~ Shauna Niequist
Forgiveness quotes by Shauna Niequist
Forgiveness is the attribute of the stong. ~ J. Sterling
Forgiveness quotes by J. Sterling
The Lord never gets tired of forgiving. "Never," Francis said. "We are the ones who get tired of asking him for forgiveness. ~ John L. Allen Jr.
Forgiveness quotes by John L. Allen Jr.
They'll never forgive me, except they love me, so they will. ~ Maria Dahvana Headley
Forgiveness quotes by Maria Dahvana Headley
We must not only speak about forgiveness and reconciliation, we must act on these principles. ~ Desmond Tutu
Forgiveness quotes by Desmond Tutu
Our forgiving love toward men is the evidence of God's forgiving love in us. It is a necessary condition of the prayer of faith. ~ Andrew Murray
Forgiveness quotes by Andrew Murray
I forgive," Penny said. "But I don't forget. I'll remember the kind of gum you were chewing when you did me wrong. ~ M.J. Mandrake
Forgiveness quotes by M.J. Mandrake
don't mistake my calm for forgiveness because there's none where you're concerned. ~ L. Divine
Forgiveness quotes by L. Divine
He is dead, right?"
"Graveyard dead," Bran admitted without a hint of remorse.
"Oh, forgive us," Rick murmured, crossing himself.
"Forgiveness is between him and God," Bran insisted. "It was my job to arrange the meeting."
"Man on Fire," Maddy blurted. ~ Julie Ann Walker
Forgiveness quotes by Julie Ann Walker
Forgiveness is easy,' he says. 'It's just like a door. You open it and walk through. ~ Lisa Heathfield
Forgiveness quotes by Lisa Heathfield
Nothing inspires forgiveness quite like revenge. ~ Scott Adams
Forgiveness quotes by Scott Adams
It's not our ability to get forgiveness that saves us. It's out ability to grant forgiveness. ~ Jeri Smith-Ready
Forgiveness quotes by Jeri Smith-Ready
Before we can experience the pure & serene state of love, we must learn how to give forgiveness - to ourselves & to others. Have you forgiven yourself? ~ Debbie Ford
Forgiveness quotes by Debbie Ford
Forgiveness does not wipe away the consequences of the sin. The consequences are borne by somebody. ~ Dorothy L. Sayers
Forgiveness quotes by Dorothy L. Sayers
When we stray from His presence, He longs for you to come back. He weeps that you are missing out on His love, protection and provision. He throws His arms open, runs toward you, gathers you up, and welcomes you home. ~ Charles Stanley
Forgiveness quotes by Charles Stanley
I have to ask Allah's forgiveness and not get angry, because they come to me out of love, and it's not fitting that I should turn to them in hatred. ~ Abdul Qadeer Khan
Forgiveness quotes by Abdul Qadeer Khan
But I tell you now that it's not too late
no matter how deep the wound. (Regarding forgiveness) ~ Jan Karon
Forgiveness quotes by Jan Karon
Jesus came to save me from myself. He came to save me from self-effort. He didn't just die for my sin to give me forgiveness; he rose again to give me life. ~ Emily P. Freeman
Forgiveness quotes by Emily P. Freeman
We dare not invest so much in the kingdom of this world that we neglect our main task of introducing people to a different kind of kingdom, one based solely on God's grace and forgiveness. Passing laws to enforce morality serves a necessary function, to dam up evil, but it never solves human problems. ~ Philip Yancey
Forgiveness quotes by Philip Yancey
Esperando (Cuando Cuba Sea Libre) is probably one of the most personal songs from the new [September, 2007] CD, "90 Millas" ... as it really speaks about the celebration, nostalgia and emotion that will happen the day Cuba is free. If we're to move forward in Cuba, we really have to have a lot of forgiveness for each other and look towards the future. ~ Gloria Estefan
Forgiveness quotes by Gloria Estefan
Fear grid-irons your broken, suffering heart with strength, encasing it with a protective, tough shell. One that soon becomes a prison that will emaciate the unused, enclosed heart inside if left to its own accord. But renewed hope gently unwraps the hard cast, and replaces it with a more resilient, pliable layer, protective, strong, but permeable so as to let love soak in and nurture the malnourished, dying heart inside. ~ Connie Kerbs
Forgiveness quotes by Connie Kerbs
If you want inner peace, unconditionally forgive everyone. If you want world peace, be an example and love everyone. ~ Debasish Mridha
Forgiveness quotes by Debasish Mridha
Through strife the slumbering soul awakes, We learn on error's troubled route The truths we could not prize without The sorrow of our sad mistakes. ~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Forgiveness quotes by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
You can love them, forgive them, want good things for them ... but still move on without them. ~ Mandy Hale
Forgiveness quotes by Mandy Hale
Kill him with your blessings of healing. ~ H. L. Balcomb
Forgiveness quotes by H. L. Balcomb
Redemption comes to those who wait, forgiveness is the key. ~ Tom Petty
Forgiveness quotes by Tom Petty
A man is better than the worst thing he's ever done. ~ Matthew Colville
Forgiveness quotes by Matthew Colville
Our wickedness shall not overpower the unspeakable goodness and mercy of God; our dullness shall not overpower God's wisdom, nor our infirmity God's omnipotence. ~ John Of Kronstadt
Forgiveness quotes by John Of Kronstadt
Only if you first seek inner forgiveness will your confrontation be temperate, wise, and gracious. Only when you have lost the need to see the other person hurt will you have any chance of actually bringing about change, reconciliation, and healing. You have to submit to the costly suffering and death of forgiveness if there is going to be any resurrection. ~ Timothy Keller
Forgiveness quotes by Timothy Keller
Now may deep sleep put us at rest in Thee after the long day, and may morning find us more serene, more thankful, a little stronger, and eager for the unfolding of radiant life. Help us to be ready to see Thy beauty in common things and to find our anchorage in eternal love and truth and forgiveness and hope. ~ Carl Heath Kopf
Forgiveness quotes by Carl Heath Kopf
We can forgive anything as long as it isn't done to us. ~ P.D. James
Forgiveness quotes by P.D. James
My dream is to live a good life and be loving, be close to God and be a good human being and bring peace to people. ~ Ziggy Marley
Forgiveness quotes by Ziggy Marley
I saw darkness in her beauty, and she saw beauty in my darkness. Yin and yang. Black and white. Beauty and scars; fury and forgiveness. She should've been my nemesis, but in her, I found something I didn't know I was looking for. ~ Keri Lake
Forgiveness quotes by Keri Lake
Isn't it funny? You forgive people before they ask forgiveness. Later they expect your apologize. ~ M.F. Moonzajer
Forgiveness quotes by M.F. Moonzajer
Forgiveness is not a one off decision; it is a journey and a process that takes time, determination, and persistence. Forgiveness is not forgetting; it is simply denying your pain the right to control your life. ~ Corallie Buchanan
Forgiveness quotes by Corallie Buchanan
Though justice be Thy plea, consider this: That in the course of justice none of us should see salvation. We do pray for mercy, And that same prayer doth teach us all to render The deeds of mercy. ~ George Bernard Shaw
Forgiveness quotes by George Bernard Shaw
No matter what you say, or how much you talk, someone isn't really forgiven until you can stand beside them without wanting to slap them in the face. ~ Alan Heathcock
Forgiveness quotes by Alan Heathcock
A marriage based on full confidence, based on complete and unqualified frankness on both sides; they are not keeping anything back; there's no deception underneath it all. If I might so put it, it's an agreement for the mutual forgiveness of sin. ~ Henrik Ibsen
Forgiveness quotes by Henrik Ibsen
We have a strange illusion that mere time cancels sin. I have heard others, and I have heard myself, recounting cruelties and falsehoods committed in boyhood as if they were no concern of the present speaker's, and even with laughter. But mere time does nothing either to the fact or to the guilt of a sin. The guilt is washed out not by time but by repentance and the blood of Christ: if we have repented these early sins we should remember the price of our forgiveness and be humble. ~ C.S. Lewis
Forgiveness quotes by C.S. Lewis
Not all mistake deserves a consequence. Sometimes the only thing it deserves is forgiveness. ~ Colleen Hoover
Forgiveness quotes by Colleen Hoover
She soon learned that to survive atrocity is to be made an honorary consul to a republic of pain. There existed unspoken protocols governing how she was expected to suffer. Total breakdown, a failure to grieve graciously, was a violation of those rules. But so was the absence of suffering, so was outright forgiveness.What she and others like her were allowed was a kind of passive bereavement, the right to pose for newspaper photographs holding framed pictures of their dead relations in their hands, the right to march in boisterous but toothless parades, the right to call for an end to bloodshed as though bloodshed were some pest or vagrant who could be evicted or run out of town. As long as she adhered to those rules, moved within those margins, she remained worthy of grand, public sympathy. ~ Omar El Akkad
Forgiveness quotes by Omar El Akkad
Once the
exhilaration of their reunion wore off, once the newness of their lovemaking was no longer so
new, how would she see him? No matter how careful he was, invariably someday he would
do something to make her angry. What then? Would all the old unhappiness rush to the fore?
Would she remember that he had once betrayed her and regret that she'd ever given him a
second chance?
Or would she protect herself from the beginning by keeping a certain distance from him, so
that their closeness would always fall short of true communion, always denying him that final
forgiveness so that he could never hurt her again? ~ Sherry Thomas
Forgiveness quotes by Sherry Thomas
The point we desperately need to grasp is that forgiveness is not the same thing as tolerance. We are told again and again today that we must be "inclusive"; that Jesus welcomed all kinds of people just as they were; that the church believes in forgiveness and therefore we should remarry divorcees without question, reinstate employees who were sacked for dishonesty, allow convicted pedophiles back into children's work-actually, we don't normally say the last of these, which shows that we have retained at least some vestiges of common sense. But forgiveness is not the same as tolerance. It is not the same as inclusivity. It is not the same as indifference, whether personal or moral. Forgiveness doesn't mean that we don't take evil seriously after all; it means that we do. ~ N. T. Wright
Forgiveness quotes by N. T. Wright
Forgiveness is taking seriously the awfulness of what has happened when you are treated unfairly. Forgiveness is not pretending that things are other than the way they are. ~ Desmond Tutu
Forgiveness quotes by Desmond Tutu
When Allah makes us aware of a sin we committed, He is not punishing us, but rather inviting us toward His presence. In this way, the moment we are drawn to sincere repentance, we are in effect unveiling the forgiveness that Allah has already written for us to experience. Someone asked the great eighth-century mystic Rabia Al-Adawiyya, "I have sinned much; if I repent, will Allah forgive me?" She profoundly replied, "It is the opposite; if Allah forgives you, you are capable of repentance. ~ A. Helwa

Forgive yourself. The supreme act of forgiveness is when you can forgive yourself for all the wounds you've created in your own life. Forgiveness is an act of self-love. When you forgive yourself, self-acceptance begins and self-love grows. ~ Miguel Angel Ruiz
Forgiveness quotes by Miguel Angel Ruiz
More courage is required to forgive than is required to take up arms. ~ Jose Ramos-Horta
Forgiveness quotes by Jose Ramos-Horta
If you don't believe God has forgiven you, you are actually saying that God needs to do more for your forgiveness, and that Jesus' sacrifice was not enough. ~ Jud Wilhite
Forgiveness quotes by Jud Wilhite

Forgiveness quotes by Five Finger Death Punch
Forgiveness is for yourself because it frees you. It lets you out of that prison you put yourself in. ~ Louise L. Hay
Forgiveness quotes by Louise L. Hay
I have come to believe that forgiveness is the key to survival. It does no good to see everything as a struggle between opposing factions. Few things are that simple. ~ Elliott Holt
Forgiveness quotes by Elliott Holt
Forgiveness of self is all forgivenesses starts ~ Neale Donald Walsch
Forgiveness quotes by Neale Donald Walsch
They deserve forgiveness. Everyone does. ~ Dana Reinhardt
Forgiveness quotes by Dana Reinhardt
Revenge is a bad policy if you gain nothing out of it, but under the same circumstances, forgiveness is even a worse one. ~ M.F. Moonzajer
Forgiveness quotes by M.F. Moonzajer
Love is joy and happiness.
Love is purity in it's true form.
Love covers multiple of sins. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Forgiveness quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in our lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope.
Nothing which is true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore we must be saved by faith.
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore we must be saved by love.
No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as it is from our standpoint. Therefore we must be saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness. ~ Reinhold Niebuhr
Forgiveness quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr
Not only truth can set you free, but forgiveness as well. ~ Auliq Ice
Forgiveness quotes by Auliq Ice
The community knows that the fundamental questions of life can only be looked at in a spirit of peace and inner freedom. Nobody can force anyone else to love and to walk to freedom. Militants for a cause will tend to be organized for a struggle which they hope to win; they will seek to impose their way aggressively. Frequently they seek outward change more than inward change.

. . . As long as there are fears and prejudices in the human heart, there will be war and bitter injustice. It is only when hearts are healed, and become loving and open, that the great political problems will be solved. . . . As fears and prejudices diminish, and trust in God and others grows, the community can radiate and witness to a style and quality of life which will bring a solution to the troubles of our world.

The response to war is to live like brothers and sisters. The response to injustice is to share. The response to despair is a limitless trust and hope. The response to prejudice and hatred is forgiveness. To work for community is to work for humanity. To work for peace in community, through acceptance of others as they are, and through constant forgiveness, is to work for peace in the world and for true political solutions; it is to work for the Kingdom of God. ~ Jean Vanier
Forgiveness quotes by Jean Vanier
The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness. ~ William Blake
Forgiveness quotes by William Blake
Never go hungry while the daily bread of grace is on the table of mercy. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Forgiveness quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
The secret to peace is forgiveness. ~ Grace Lin
Forgiveness quotes by Grace Lin
Guard your heart and mind against double-minded pretentious beings. Do not allow infiltration beyond the surface. If their influence travels on the inside, they become like an incurable disease. ~ Amaka Imani Nkosazana
Forgiveness quotes by Amaka Imani Nkosazana
Happiness is long-lasting, a condition of the soul, the foundation on which the circumstances of life are experienced, endured, or enjoyed. ~ Auliq Ice
Forgiveness quotes by Auliq Ice
God offered the greatest and most wonderful gift freely, while we were still sinners. It is a gift for any and every one, no matter how broken, how far, or how dark. He didn't require us to change before we came, but offered a way out while we were at our worst. ~ Sarah Holman
Forgiveness quotes by Sarah Holman
Guilt-free friendship says that any time you get back to me is a good time. Guilt-free friendship says that I will always assume the best about your motivations. Guilt-free friendship says that I won't keep score when it comes to emails answered or phone calls returned. Guilt-free friendship focuses on the friendship and ditches the guilt. Guilt-free friendship loves any chance and any slice of time to catch up; it isn't about criticizing how much or how frequently that happens. Instead, guilt-free friendship is generous and forgiving and creates easy space for reconnecting because it doesn't have any conditions for how or when or how often that happens. ~ Lisa-Jo Baker
Forgiveness quotes by Lisa-Jo Baker
We do terrible things to the ones we love. We cheat and lie and betray them, for thirty pieces of silver or our own selfish hearts. The only way love endures is because of one simple gift. Forgiveness. ~ Vanessa Woods
Forgiveness quotes by Vanessa Woods
Alas! if my best Friend, who laid down His life for me, were to remember all the instances in which I have neglected Him, and to plead them against me in judgment, where should I hide my guilty head in the day of recompense? I will pray, therefore, for blessings on my friends, even though they cease to be so, and upon my enemies, though they continue such. ~ William Cowper
Forgiveness quotes by William Cowper
Nonreaction is not weakness but strength. Another word for nonreaction is forgiveness. To forgive is to overlook, or rather to look through. You look through the ego to the sanity that is in every human being as his or her essence. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Forgiveness quotes by Eckhart Tolle
