Practice forgiveness with words from "summary" of Change Your Words, Change Your Life by Joyce Meyer
In a world filled with hurt and disappointment, forgiveness can be a powerful tool to bring healing and restoration. However, forgiveness is not always easy, especially when we have been deeply wounded by someone's words or actions. But what if I told you that forgiveness can start with something as simple as the words we speak?When we choose to practice forgiveness with our words, we are making a conscious decision to let go of bitterness and resentment. Instead of holding onto grudges and anger, we speak words of grace and mercy towards those who have wronged us. By doing so, we are not only freeing ourselves from the chains of unforgiveness but also extending the same grace that we have received from a loving and forgiving God. When we speak words of forgiveness, we are choosing to release the power that hurtful words and actions have over us. By refusing to dwell on past grievances and instead speaking words of reconciliation and peace, we are taking the first step towards healing and restoration. Our words have the power to create an atmosphere of forgiveness and reconciliation, not only in our own hearts but also in the hearts of those around us. In practicing forgiveness with our words, we are also choosing to reflect the character of Christ, who forgave even those who crucified Him. Just as He spoke words of forgiveness from the cross, we too can choose to speak words of forgiveness in the face of betrayal and hurt. By doing so, we are imitating the ultimate act of forgiveness and love that Christ demonstrated for us on the cross. So, the next time you find yourself struggling to forgive someone, remember that forgiveness can start with the words you speak. Choose to practice forgiveness with your words, and watch as healing and restoration flow into your life and relationships. Remember, forgiveness is not a one-time event but a daily choice to speak words of grace, mercy, and reconciliation.
