An Excellent Spirit

International Author Evangelist Theresa Denise Pettaway shares with readers the principle of building self-esteem through active forgiveness and gives some applicable strategies to incorporate in their lives.



Building self-esteem is not only a natural journey—it is also a spiritual journey as well. Self-esteem is the overall sense of respect or regard that you place on your own usefulness and importance. Healthy self-esteem is a spiritual achievement. Forgiveness raises your self-esteem.



Forgiveness is an active process, not a one-time event. Forgiveness is not giving your perpetrators license to continue causing you hurt and pain. Forgiveness is not impossible. However, forgiveness is mandatory. Forgiveness gives you control over your life and not someone else. Forgiveness is the ability to free yourself to be all that you were meant to be. Forgiveness is your wings to rise up and soar to greater heights in your life.
