Love forgives.
Great marriages are not created by people who never hurt each other, only by people who choose to keep "no record of wrongs" (1 Corinthians 13:5).
Inability to forgive is the most complex problem of all ( Matthew 18).
Forgiveness cannot just be considered and contemplated but must be deliberately put in practice.
Many a times we are unable to forgive because of perceived dangers and risks involved in forgiving others.
Nevertheless, forgiveness does not absolve anyone of blame. It does not clear the offenders record with God.
Forgiveness saves the forgiver the trouble of trying to win.
Forgiveness is about freedom.
It is about letting go.
By forgiving I release my anger and the responsibility for judging the offender to the Lord.
