It's different types of flowers very easy to choose a heavy heart rather than a light heart that love & peace prompt. Forgiveness is something easy on the lips part, but sometimes struggles the feet together to roll and forget the lips ahead of the heavy heart.
Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (who died in December 2013) was a man who had grasped something about true forgiveness. He had every reason to get angry from prison and to harm - but he chose to leave behind his heavy heart, with a heart full of peace and love to walk out.
I still often fail to choose love hearts above the heavy heart, but Madiba's life was an inspiration that one can motivate. He has the kind of peace, love and forgiveness which Jesus speaks in the Bible understood and practiced - something that we as followers of Jesus very seldom do, if it is supposed to be part of our everyday life.
It's always easy to say we have to make peace, but to do it actually takes a lot of guts. Mandela's life and his death was renewed again to select a reminder to me that anyone different types of flowers against trying to have a heart of stone. We must allow the Holy Spirit to touch our hearts and change. Time after time the Lord promises in His Word to us that he is our hearts & minds will change if we just trust in Him!
Think about your biggest "enemy" here on earth and try to find it in your heart to forgive them as Jesus forgave us. The radical thing about forgiveness & grace is the fact that a person receives something you do not deserve whatsoever.
