Expressions of Faith: Forgiveness
Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
(Colossians 3:13 NIV)
Forgiveness
It's not easy to do what's in this verse.
Forgiving someone takes an intentional act on our part.
We tend to savor grievances, swirling them around in our minds like hard candy in our mouths—trying to extract some sweetness. It's so much easier to dwell on the past with some wrongs.
However, when we are hurt badly, the only way to heal our soul is by forgiveness.
Is there someone you need to forgive and heal your soul?
If so, go and offer your forgiveness.
What better way to move through 2016 than knowing you've done your part in healing a relationship.
By forgiveness.
