Given your situation you do not need to be forgiven, and it is far too soon to forgive anyone else. Don't worry, Angel; you are free from sin; 100% free, as pure as the day you were born. There is no sin accounted to you in heaven; none whatever*.
We can only forgive other people when they stop hurting us, and are sorry for what they have done. While they continue, we do not have to forgive them. We can if we choose to do so, but we don't have to.
God be with you and keep you safe, Angel.
(To my Presbyterian brothers and sisters: *Angel is not in a good place, and she is a minor. She is sinned against, but not sinning. She needs our prayers.)

Have to defer to your judgement on this matter. You apparently have knowledge of the situation. i believe that the UK had the same saying for their physicians as does the US: First Do No Harm. The quickest way to cause harm would be to dash in with no knowledge of the situation, and presume to offer advice. Frankly, it is probably best NOT to know the situation, as it has the feel of something that should not be public knowledge. Prayer we can do, should do, and will do. |  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
