Forgiveness is a powerful tool from "summary" of I Do Again by Cheryl Scruggs,Jeff Scruggs
Forgiveness is not always easy. It often feels like the last thing we want to do when we have been hurt or wronged by someone we love. But despite its difficulty, forgiveness is a powerful tool that can transform relationships and bring healing where there was once pain. When we hold on to grudges and resentment, we only end up hurting ourselves in the long run. Bitterness can consume us from the inside out, poisoning our hearts and minds. But when we choose to forgive, we release ourselves from the burden of carrying around that hurt. We free ourselves from the chains of anger and bitterness, allowing us to move forward with a lighter heart and a clearer mind. Forgiveness is not about letting the other person off the hook or pretending that what they did was okay. It is about choosing to let go of the pain and anger that is holding us back. It is about choosing to extend grace and mercy to those who have hurt us, even when they may not deserve it. By choosing to forgive, we open ourselves up to the possibility of reconciliation and restoration. We give ourselves the chance to rebuild trust and repair the broken pieces of our relationships. Forgiveness is a bridge that can connect us back to the ones we love, allowing us to move forward together in unity and love. In the end, forgiveness is a powerful tool that has the ability to mend what is broken and heal what is wounded. It is a choice that we make not just for the other person, but for ourselves as well. When we choose to forgive, we choose to set ourselves free from the chains of bitterness and resentment. We choose to open our hearts to love and grace, allowing healing to take place where there was once pain.
