Mateus 18:22

Forgiveness Let's take a look at some Bible Verses. God wants you to be at peace, fearless, full of faith, hope, and love, right? He wouldn't want you anxious or full of anger. Forgiveness scriptures teach you how to be a more forgiving person.  Wisdom comes from meditation on God's Word.

Whether we suffer emotional or physical wounds, forgiveness is the cornerstone of the Christian life. Jesus Christ experience all kinds of unfair and unjust treatment, even to the point of a wrongful death. Yet in his final hour, he forgave the mocking thief on the other cross and his executioners.

It's no secret that those who are closest to us can wound us the most profoundly. Reeling from betrayal, we build walls around our hearts to protect us from the heartache, yet these are the very walls that block us from seeing hope, receiving healing and feeling love. It's time to tear down your walls, work through your wounds, repair damaged relationships and discover the power of an open heart.
