WHY IS HARD TO SAY ( PART 3)

Has anyone offended you? It doesn't matter if it was on purpose or not we all have been hurt by someone. If you ever interact with people...I sure hope you do (more than pets or tv). We all get hurt!!! If you were in the wrong.. admit it , repent and apologize!!!

Yet,there are times when you were really the one who got the raw end of the deal, you were in the right, you getting mad was justified, everyone knew it was the other person who made a mistake. What do you do ?

What would Jesus do ? We all have sinned against God. He was clearly in the right.. we were in the wrong. What did he do ?

FORGIVE.. if someone apologizes to you make sure you forgive and never hold a grudge. IF the person never acknowledges his mistake.. still FORGIVE IN YOUR HEART. Never let a root of bitterness set in. Treat the person well. The Bible commanded us to
"Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you". Colossians 3:13

The last hard thing to say is "I forgive you"
