Day 141 of 365

Forgiveness Brings Freedom

Colossians 3:13

Colossians 3:13

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

Reflection

Forgiveness doesn't minimize hurt or excuse sin. It releases you from bitterness's prison. When you forgive, you're not saying what they did was okay. You're saying you won't let it control you anymore. Forgiveness is for your freedom, not their benefit. Holding grudges only hurts you. Christ forgave you completely. Extend that same grace to others. Who do you need to forgive? Release them today. Choose freedom.
