One of the things I frequently see and hear in the therapy room is a person who continues to beat themselves up over issues from the past. Much of the time it is a benign experience of what they did or did not do. No matter how much they have asked for and prayed for forgiveness, they still punish themselves ad nauseum, ad infinitum. Hearing this over and over, several years ago, I composed the following maxim:
You can never feel forgiven for a sin you didn't commit.
