Whether a personal or public matter, we quickly reveal whether we possess a servant's heart in how we respond to those who have offended us. And it isn't enough simply to say, "Well okay, you are forgiven but don't expect me to forget it". That means we have built and erected a monument of spite in our mind, and that isn't really forgiveness at all. Servants must be big people. Big enough to go on, remembering the right and forgetting the wrong. Like the old age saying, "Write injuries in dust, benefits in marble".
True servants when demonstrating genuine love, don't keep score. Webster defines forget as " to lose the remembrance of ... to treat with inattention and disregard... - to disregard intentionally.. OVER LOOK: to cease remembering or noticing.. - to fail to become mindful at the proper time. That's the thought.
