Forgiveness series
Today we start a new series on Forgiveness. I had initially thought it will be a series for the week but as I have been putting the structure together and each of the teachings I have come to realise that it will definitely be more.
Forgiveness is a process. Healing is a process. A process we all may be going through. My prayer is as we sit and learn from each episode the Holy Spirit works on each of our hearts and heals us. In Jesus Name. Amen.
First Episode: What is forgiveness?
Forgiveness is a conscious and deliberate decision to let go of feelings of hurt, resentment, vengeance towards an offender who has hurt or harmed you, regardless of whether they deserve this act of kindness or not. The offender can be a person, a group of people, organisation, leaders -enemies, village people etc.

Guiding bible verse:
“Yes, if you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you, then your Father in heaven will also forgive your wrongs. But if you don’t forgive others, then your Father in heaven will not forgive the wrongs you do.”
Matthew 6:14-15 ERV
