Who Are The Real Heroes?

Those who forgive are the real heroes of the world. It is easy to stay in anger, but it takes courage to forgive those who have hurt you or worse. What about those who have forgiven the murderer of their child. They talk about a lifting of a dark veil, a place that comes over them that is not of this world. This is G.I.A. --- God in action. Why would you not forgive someone --- the only reason is the belief that somehow this continues to punish that person. But at what cost --- your peace and joy. If Jesus was able to forgive those who crucified him, surely you can forgive. Be a warrior, not a victim, for when you forgive, you take your power back instead of being a victim of your circumstances.
