Forgiveness Letter (Write a letter to yourself from someone you hurt)

Dear Macda,

Trust. The one thing I thought would never be a problem. I thought we were on the same page when it came to trusting each other, but apparently not. You would constantly say you trusted me. You would have no problem with me spending time with my female friends or even speaking to them on the phone. That's what set you apart from all the other girls. You weren’t jealous. You knew how I felt for you, and that's all that mattered. Then all of a sudden, you question my feelings for you. You let your insecurities overcome your thoughts and even your behavior. You said you trusted me but I could no longer take your word for it. Actions spoke louder than words. You stopped trusting me.

It has been a long time, but my soul has been harboring a grudge my pride has refused to release. It hurts that I can walk right past you as if you were never a huge part of my life. We used to be able to speak for hours and now, I can’t even approach you with a hello. If Jesus says to forgive 7 x 70 times, why has it taken me so long to forgive once? I guess time really does heal all wounds. Whether this makes a difference or not, I forgive you. I forgive you for making me feel as though our memories made together were a waste of my time. I forgive you for making me feel hurt and inadequate. I forgive you for not trusting me but lying to my face saying you did. Forgiving you certainly will not change the past, but it will definitely improve the future.

Sincerely,
Jesson
