Recently, I came across this 7 minute video featuring Corrie Ten Boon ( The Hiding Place) where she gives us some lessons on forgiveness.
The problem with forgiveness it seems is that we want to delay extending forgiveness until we think the other person has suffered enough. The danger with this fallacy has to do how it actually destroys the person who is refusing to forgive. This lack of forgiveness leads to internal problems like indigestion, heart ache, and a host of other problems. The lack of forgiveness can even lead to a untimely and early death.
Watch this powerful 7 minute video and find out how you might extend forgiveness today.
Divorce, abuse, murder are all things that can keep us closed minded to any possibility of extending forgiveness. We must not let that happened. God's Son died on the cross so that we might have forgiveness from all of our sins. If we truly believe in the redemptive power of Jesus Christ we must forgive those who we perceived have wronged us. Peace will overwhelm you as your do this.
