Mark 11:26
Mark 11:26
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
A heart that refuses to forgive is one that remains bound by bitterness, while a heart that chooses mercy is set free. This principle of forgiveness is a powerful reminder that our own peace is intertwined with our willingness to release others from their wrongs. By choosing to forgive, we let go of resentment, allowing ourselves to experience a life of joy and fulfillment. Each act of mercy builds a foundation of grace, a life that values healing over hurt. This journey of forgiveness is not always easy, but it is a path that leads to a life of peace, a life that inspires others to seek reconciliation. By embracing this principle, we create a legacy of kindness, a life that reflects the values of empathy and compassion. This choice to forgive transforms us, allowing us to live with a heart that is free and open to love, a life that reflects the beauty of mercy.

Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.
