ARE YOU HURTING? Have you been carrying around that hurt for years? Have you found yourself asking: Why should I have to forgive? He doesn't deserve to be forgiven.Doesn't forgiveness mean I have to trust again?
I wrestled with those same questions myself. I resisted this thing called forgiveness for two long depressing years. The thing of it was; I wasn't getting any better. I was still hurting, still wounded, still broken. So, in a final desperate moment, I made a decision to dive into this concept of forgiveness until I really understood what it meant. As I wrestled, what I discovered was stunning. I was unprepared to learn that forgiveness is actually a gift to the one who is hurting. That's right: it's a gift for you! Hard to imagine? I understand. It was unfathomable to me as well. Forgiveness is often greatly misunderstood. Because we don't understand it, we reject it.
I extend an invitation to you to join me on a journey of discovering the gems that lie within forgiveness and how it can change your life forever. Will you join me?
