32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. – Ephesians 4:32
One of the best ways to show compassionate kindness to someone is by offering them forgiveness. When we forgive those who wrong us, we release them from our anger, offer them to God, and invite Jesus to heal our hurt. We need not wait for people to ask for our forgiveness. Sometimes we offer forgiveness directly to the one who hurt us. But when we cannot do this, we pray, “Lord, I forgive them for hurting me.” When we forgive, we unclench our spirits and receive the healing touch of Jesus, who restores our wounded hearts. So, forgiveness is more for us than the one who wronged us. When we are restored, we are free to offer kindness, free to receive joy and free to experience love. Forgiveness brings freedom.
Affectionately,
Ric
