Quotes about Release

Forgiveness Involves Canceling a Debt

A failure to forgive someone will change you

Forgiveness is an event and a process

Forgiveness is not forgetting

The right thing would be simply releasing it all and saying, "All right. God knows. I'm living in his world. He can give me what he wants. I will not put these things in the place of God.

There may be times when you have to renew your commitment to release what you want, how you look, and especially what you are doing for the Lord. Much of our effort to do things for the Lord is really the resurgence of our desire to dominate and make things happen in our own strength.

I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you're able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it's about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.

It can be hard to forgive and let go but it's important to remember that harboring the resentment and holding a grudge can hurt you even more. The word "forgive" really means to give something up for yourself not for them.

Let go of offence. Let go of fear. Let go of revenge. Don't live angry, let go now!

If you love something so much let it go. If it comes back it was meant to be; if it doesn't it never was.

The more we hold on to our hurts, anger and bitterness, the more we become slaves to unforgiveness.

Dear God, I am so afraid to open my clenched fists! Who will I be when I have nothing left to hold on to? Who will I be when I stand before you with empty hands? Please help me to gradually open my hands and to discover that I am not what I own, but what you want to give me.
