Forgiveness

When reading my Bible, the Message version, I read Mark 11: 24-25. “That’s why I urge you to pray for absolutely everything, ranging from small to large. Include everything as you embrace this God-life, and you’ll get God’s everything. And when you assume the posture of prayer, remember that it’s not all asking. If you have anything against someone, forgive—only then will your heavenly Father be inclined to also wipe your slate clean of sins.”

I am having a lot of difficulty with forgiveness. If there is a person that has lied cheated, and treated your family as if they are worthless, then it is hard to forgive.  I know forgiveness is expected, and should be, but it is so difficult.  Do you just stop praying?  Is God  listening? At what point does forgiveness finally come?
