Every day, and every moment of our lives, we are making decisions that shape the kind of people we ultimately become—vengeful, forgiving, or something in between. What we put into our lives shapes us. When we practice choosing love, we have love to give others. But, when we hold on to vengefulness, it can eat away at the love in our lives and tempt us to choose retribution. If you continue to make deposits of love in your life, no matter how challenging a situation, you will find love to give out to others.
Today, do one thing that stores up love for others. You can memorize scripture about loving others, look for ways to serve someone, or get creative. Just try it today.

About this Plan

Okay so you've forgiven, but how can you tell if it's even working? The hurt, frustration, or confusion is still very real and "they" never actually said sorry. It can feel sweet to stay bitter. But maybe there's a better answer. We'll learn how when you don't forgive, it hurts you, that everybody needs forgiveness, and how it's okay that healing doesn't always happen overnight.
