Forgiveness of the one who hurt me most

For me the past couple of  weeks have brought me great healing in my life. I forgave my ex-husband for abusing and raping me.  I could not go on the way I have been and it  has taken me 23 years to do this. It wasn't a me thing it was a God thing because without the Lord's hand in this I couldn't have done it at all. I was becoming a very bitter bitchy woman that I didn't like. I am going to a new church and the sis group I have is amazing and I love them alot. Forgiving doesn't mean forgetting because maybe I never will. But it means he is in the Lord's hands now and that is the best place he could be. I wish him the peace that the Lord can give him. Hopefully he will come to the lord one day. That is my wish for him now!
