Sometimes we know that God has forgiven us but we have trouble forgiving ourselves. Why do you think this is true?
I think it's hard to forgive ourselves because even though we know we've been forgiven, we also know we don't deserve to be. It's hard to really connect just how Fully Jesus paid for us. It wasn't just in our salvation - it is in our everyday lives. I think we forget that we aren't displeasing to Him because he doesn't see US anymore. It's kind of like concealer. We are a blemish on God's perfect creation... he couldn't just turn and not stare at us... instead, he covered us up with something perfect instead. So even though the blemish is still there... he sees perfection.
