We live in a time when forgiveness is rarely given. It’s almost always said, “I forgive you.” but never makes it to the heart.
We want to be mad at those that have hurt us.
We deserve to hold onto that anger, don’t we? If we forgive - I mean truly forgive in our hearts - then doesn’t the offender win?
If any of that is true….then the cross has no meaning. Jesus death on the cross, which is for the FORGIVENESS of YOUR sins, is meaningless.
Your mom, dad, brother, friend, boyfriend, wife, husband, or maybe a complete stranger may have done something horrible to you……holding onto it gives them a hold on the rest of your life.
Forgive.
Give them a second chance.
