"When we don't forgive, we allow another person to take over much of our minds and control us."
I spent way too many years of my life believing that an offense that had been committed against me was something that was "too big" to forgive. Eventually, I tried "pretending" that I forgave in order to "do what God wanted me to do", but I still was not free, like the Fresh Start quote above says.
It wasn't until I actually extended the offer of forgiveness to the other person involved that I found that I was able to let go and be free. God did an amazing work in my life when I obeyed Him in this!
