She discovers that it is a lifelong quest. In our modern society, most people can be so quick to judge and condemn others or even themselves. It is human nature to withhold forgiveness, sometimes for years, decades, or even a lifetime. Holding onto anger and resentment will hurt you more than it can hurt the other person. However, you can choose to carry on the burden and past grievances, or you can choose to forgive completely and be at peace with yourself and God. Forgiveness is a decision. Forgiveness is free. The 70X7 is a Christian infinity symbol, which means forgiveness must be given infinite and without limit. Forgiveness does not have a timeline. So, you can take your time. The first two chapters lay out some forgiveness verses from a religious perspective. Then, Ms. Rasul takes on various self-help books that discuss traditional and radical forgiveness. We must be willing to open our hearts and accept forgiveness over resentment. True forgiveness can only come from the core of one's heart. What you withhold suppress your peace. What you release determines your freedom.
