"As we forgive those who sin against us" Matthew 6 verse 12

“We are to forgive so that we may enjoy God's goodness without feeling the weight of anger burning deep within our hearts. Forgiveness does not mean we recant the fact that what happened to us was wrong. Instead, we roll our burdens onto the Lord and allow Him to carry them for us.”
Charles Stanley

• Unforgiveness robs you of your joy in the Lord.
• Forgiveness toward others releases and demonstrates the grace of God through you, into peoples' lives.

Application Questions:
1. When do you find it hardest to forgive?
2. Do you have relationships where forgiveness is harder to give than others?
When forgiveness is hard, go back to the cross, look into His eyes, see His love and grace for you, ask Him to give you His lavish grace, choose to stand in His grace and forgive.
