You can pray that Jesus will soften their heart and bring them to a place of understanding and forgiveness. Jesus loves you and wants to forgive you of your sins. No matter how many times we do wrong, Jesus is always there with outstretched arms ready to forgive to those who with a whole heart ask for forgiveness. The only way into heaven is through Christ. You must ask him into your life. To reign over EVERY aspect of your life then and only then will you be forever in fellowship with God. As humans we will sin, but knowing that we have the Grace of God, we can bodly go before the throne and ask for forgiveness and turn from the sin and march toward Christ kindgom.

Forgiveness is not something that someone gives to you to release you. If you've done somebody wrong and sincerely ask for forgiveness that is where your obligation ends. it is up to the other person to forgive or not. To forgive someone does not release the person from what they have done, but it releases the forgiver from the hard feelings, negativity and resentment. Unforgiveness can eventually eat someones life away.
Dont worry about them. they didnt die on a cross for you and make a contract with you that they will forgive your sins. That is what Christ is for. HE promised you salvation - not another person. The unforfiver will have to live with their own pain.
We are commanded to forgive others, not to receive forgiveness from others.

Salvation is not dependent upon any action we take - it is a free gift of God. If you have accepted Jesus sacrifice on the cross in payment of sin, you need to realize that He paid the price for ALL sin - not just some. You have repented of the wrong and tried to make amends - that is all that anyone can ask of you.

Yeh you need to do what you can, and also ask the Lord for forgiveness, because believe it or not he loves everyone as much as you. If they dont accept your apology it is on them, as long as you have earnestly sought forgiveness

You must try your best to settle their greivance, otherwise it will go against you, but If you tried your best, I'm sure He will see what you have done. If they dont forgive you because they are false at heart, then it will be seen by Him.

Well if someone doesn't forgive that is their right. Live with it and make sure you don't do it again.
