God dealt with our whole situation on the cross there is nothing left for you to settle. Just say to Him, 'Lord, I cannot forgive and I will no longer try to do it but I trust that You in me will do it. I can't forgive and love but I trust that You will forgive and love in my place and that You will do these things in me.'
