Love and forgiveness go hand in hand. Both require action on our part. Both require personal commitment. It’s a process. There will be days (maybe even months or years) when you don’t feel like loving or forgiving. In those times, it becomes a commitment to act on behalf of someone else. A choice to commit to love and forgive daily – weekly – yearly.
To forgive, truly forgive – is hard. It as to be intentional, it has to be given, it’s a gift we not only give to someone who wronged us, but an un-natural gift to ourselves.
To let go. That. Is. Difficult — That is true LOVE
Thank you Jesus for never giving up on me
Thank you Jesus for loving me despite of me
God chose us
God chose to send His Son to be a sacrifice for US
Because He loves us
Because He’s committed to us
Because no matter what we’ve done, when we ask for His forgiveness – He forgives
Right away
No questions asked
No matter how big or small
So that we can experience His overflow of Grace
Grace for the journey – Jerusha
