How do I stay committed to the forgiveness journey when I still have anger?
Anger can endure for a long time even when we forgive. Yet, as we engage in forgiveness, the anger can lessen. As one person so wisely explained to me,” I still have some anger toward the one who hurt me. Yet, now I am in control of my anger. In the past, my anger controlled me.” Try to see even small changes in your anger. Even if it goes down only a little, this is a big victory. This knowledge can be an encouragement to keep going with the forgiveness process. Also, cultivate hope or confidence that you will be better off three months from now regarding your anger, which likely will continue to lessen as you practice forgiveness.
