Be Quick to Forgive
“Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you.”
Holding onto unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to hurt. Forgiveness isn’t saying what happened was okay - it’s choosing freedom over bitterness. Make room for imperfection. People will fail you, but grace gives you the strength to release them and move forward. Forgiveness heals more than you know.
Prayer
Lord, help me to forgive quickly and freely. Let me show others the same grace You’ve shown me. Amen.
