The Jesus Forgiveness Model is explained in my blog called "How To Forgive:" https://onlinediscipleshipforwomen.com/how-to-forgive/
Jesus and His sacrifice for us is the foundation of The Jesus Forgiveness Model I created to help myself to go through the process of forgiving those who hurt me.
Now, I'm ready to share the model with you.
Judgement - write in the J-line all your judgemental thoughts about the person who hurt you, be open and honest with yourself, judge away!
Ego - write in the E-line everything you feel you were/are entitled to but didn't get, such as a better treatment, more fairness, and everything else you feel you deserved but didn't get.
Scriptures - Matthew 6.14-15 and Luke 6.37 go here, write them out for your own understanding and to remember God's word on the topic.
Understanding - think in silence, envision what Jesus did on the Cross. He bought you at a high price. He paid all your debts and now you are debt-free. Find the desire in your heart to obey His teachings - not from a resentful place of fear but from a genuine place of gratitude for your eternal salvation.
Surrender - submit to the teachings of Jesus you wrote out in S-line above. Forgive.
Repeat this process daily whenever grief, sadness, resentment, anger, or bitterness take over. Don't let unforgiveness turn your heart into a stone. Practice this model and release unforgiveness daily to set yourself free.75 פרקים
