“Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding], forgiving one another [readily and freely], just as God in Christ also forgave you. ~Ephesians 4:32 AMP

Have you ever heard of Soul Forgiveness? I had never heard that phrase until I was in a deep conversation with another believer. Suddenly, I said true forgiveness is “soul forgiveness.” Instantly, the person and I said at the same time, “Wow," that is powerful. And it is. True forgiveness begins not in just words, but in the quiet surrender of the soul. It is not forgetting, nor is it excusing the harm. But it is the sacred act of releasing ourselves from the chains of pain, anger, and resentment. Let's be clear, Soul Forgiveness is not for the faint of heart; it is for those who are brave enough to let it go and choose peace over pride. Hallelujah!

When we forgive from the soul, we do not say, “What you did was right, “ we say, “I choose to no longer carry the burden of your wrong.” We make space for healing to begin not just in ourselves, but for the offender as well. True Soul Forgiveness does not require the other person to apologize; it requires us to truly rise above the hurt. Sincere Soul Forgiveness allows your soul to relax and breathe. We need it and we should practice it. Soul Forgiveness is a gentle act of healing and getting into Divine alignment with GOD. It is the soul’s way of saying, “I no longer wish to carry the weight that was never mine to bear.”

One more thing. To forgive at the soul level is to step into the eternal flow of God’s amazing Grace. It is to allow the light of our Divine JESUS to heal what our ego cannot touch. We do not forgive because the one we are forgiving is deserving. Oh no, we forgive because our soul is ready to be free.

Remember:

Soul forgiveness allows you to say, "I will not let this pain define me. I release you not because you deserve it, but because 'my soul' deserves peace rooted in love, which is always greater than hurt.

Prayer:
