Matthew 6:15
Matthew 6:15
But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Holding onto grudges hinders our growth, while choosing forgiveness liberates us from the chains of resentment. This principle of mercy is a powerful reminder that our own peace is intertwined with our willingness to forgive others. Each act of forgiveness reflects a commitment to a life of grace, a life that values healing over hurt. By letting go of past wrongs, we free ourselves to live with a heart that is open to love and reconciliation. This choice to forgive strengthens our relationships, creating a foundation of trust and compassion. Embracing this principle is a testament to a heart that seeks harmony, a life that reflects the values of empathy and kindness. This journey of forgiveness is not always easy, but it is a path that leads to a life of peace and fulfillment, a life that inspires others to seek reconciliation and unity.

And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also.
Matthew 6:12
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
Psalms 130:4
But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.
