Forgive

Forgive

FRIDAY

Explore your heart to see if you are holding onto any bitterness, resentment or malice towards someone who has sinned against you.

Forgive them from your heart; release them from the debt that they owe you.

Ask the Lord if you need to rebuke them in love to give them a chance to repent. For minor offenses this can mean a simple conversation. For grievous offenses like abuse (these should always be reported) this means reporting it to the proper authorities. Don’t rebuke an abuser alone.

If they repent tell them that you forgive them.

Discern what consequences or boundaries need to be in place to restore trust and move towards reconciliation.
