Let go of anger and resentment

We are now into Easter, how time flies indeed. It seemed liked yesterday when Father was giving his homily on Easter Sunday.

Father shared a very important life lesson for me on that day. He advised us to let go of anger and resentment. We need to look beyond the actions of others, and not hold on to the anger and resentment that result from their actions. Christ has set the example for us, pleading with the Father to forgive the people who brought about his Crucifixion on the cross. His words:"Father, forgive them for they know not what they are doing".

I have been angry and resentful of others who have been very unkind and terrible towards me, I'm sure you would have your fair share of such incidents. I pray that the Lord will grant me the grace to forgive them, but most importantly, may the Lord help me to let go of the anger and resentment that is preventing me from living my life to the fullest. May I take the first little step to move forward this Easter season. I pray the same for you.
