SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 4:32 – “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”
REFLECTION: Think about someone you’ve struggled to forgive. Picture the relief that comes with letting go. Forgiveness is key to showing our faith in Jesus, second only to love. We pass on what we’ve received, even if we don’t deserve it. Those forgiven much, give much. Remember, forgiving isn’t forgetting. God doesn’t erase our memories of hurt. Forgiveness is us growing spiritually. We choose not to hold grudges. Instead, we hand them over to God with worship, trust, and sometimes tears. That’s when we start to understand how much He forgives us.
The Bible tells us to seek first God’s Kingdom - the things of God, the things God wants to build, the things God wants to grow, and the children He wants to grow…and He promises that when we do, all the things that we need will be added to us!
