Forgiveness is essential, fundamental, and foundational. No growth on the Earth occurs without the generosity of FORGIVENESS. 
Forgiveness is a cleansing that clears the Earth plane to reveal the Soul. Only when you let go of that to which the human nature [ego] clings will you be able to see and know who you are. This is remembering Home—letting go of that which is not of Home [Heaven].
Live on the Earth as we live in Heaven. Judge no being and no interaction. Learn from all; contribute to all.
The Universe, or Heaven, is different. Imagine a state where LOVE is abundant to overflowing, not the emotional love [of humankind] that is connected to the body. Imagine a love so generous that forgiveness is not necessary. In the Oneness there is no need for forgiveness. Only in the illusion that you are separate [from God and from each other] is forgiveness necessary.
Ultimately, perhaps the most important action we can take is to first forgive our own perceived mistakes and imperfections. That frees us to be able to forgive others. Forgiveness is a gift we give to ourselves.

Hey! This is what I was talking about the other day!! The idea that forgiveness is a human need – forgiveness in order to free us to be ‘in’ Love. God’s love, though is unconditional Love, and in that Love, forgiveness is a ‘given’ – there is no need for it, because there is ONLY Love. So wonderful and eye opening. JUST LOVE EACHOTHER. Easier said than done, though, with these Human hearts and minds… 🙂
Wow. Beautifully said, Julie! Especially the part that forgiveness “frees us to be ‘in’ Love”. There are many aspects to that—residing in the unconditional Love of God at one level, and because of that, able to be more in love in our humanity.
