Mark 11:26
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heave forgive your trespasses. Mark 11:26 (NKJV)
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing. It restores relationships and make things right. But in the real world? It's hard.
Jesus forgave me of all my sins, paying a horrendous cost for my salvation. In turn, I'm commanded to forgive, so I can receive forgiveness from my heavenly Father. He asks me to forgive for my benefit. The burden of being unwilling to forgive is heavy, but I'm learning that with forgiveness comes freedom and peace. Forgiveness isn't a sign of weakness but love. Jesus's willingness to give His life and forgive my sins is the ultimate act of love. When I forgive others, I'm His love in action. -Tracy Eldridge-
Faith Step: Search your heart and think of people whom you've not forgiven. Start calling out their names in prayer and ask Jesus to help you forgive them. Watch your heart fill with love for them.
