It’s been said that unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
When we choose not to forgive, it hurts us, not just the person who has hurt us.
Jesus said a lot about forgiveness in the Bible.
He taught, “If you forgive others their transgressions, your heavenly Father will forgive you.” When Peter asked Jesus how often it is necessary to forgive, he replied, “Seventy times seven,” a number to be taken symbolically, not literally, for the never-ending way we should forgive.
Who do you need to forgive? Perhaps it’s yourself. Do yourself a favor by “letting it go” and teach your boys to do the same.
