This message on forgiveness brings to mind what happen between me and my friend.
There was a time we had this huge misunderstanding that even our families got involved.
I thought the matter had died when we talked and apologized to one another.
Her actions later told me otherwise.
This opened my eyes on how difficult it is to not hold grudges and forgive.
Most times, even when people have no explanation for not letting go, they don't forgive.
But when we let the hurt linger in our hearts, it will only separate us and cause more misunderstanding
The scripture clarifies that it is only when we have love in our hearts that we can forgive.
Real forgiveness comes from a heart that willing to not hold grudges.
I learnt from this teaching that forgiveness does not end with just apology but with actually letting go of the hurt.
Forgiveness heals both the heart that was hurt and the relationship between the both parties, it also brings peace.
