I Am Forgiven: When You Find it Hard to Forgive

In today's fast-paced world, we often find ourselves caught up in the chaos of daily life, neglecting the most important relationship we'll ever have - the one with ourselves, but when we follow in the footsteps of our master, Jesus, His mercy and grace fill our families, our neighbors, our faith communities, and our workplaces. The truth is, it's hard to forgive. Past hurts and pain make it challenging to let go of some of our emotions. Living a life that reflects Christ-like relationships isn't always easy and it doesn't happen overnight. In I Am Forgiven. When You Find it Hard to Forgive, challenges us to look at our relationships and what is needed to grow a Christ-like character, to encourage, and to build each other up. By cultivating better relationships with ourselves and with others we are able to essentially grow and build healthier connections with others. Finding forgiveness in ourselves and in those around us can be challenging in this life. As Christians, we are commanded to forgive others. We've all met these people, their personality has a magnetic quality. After an interaction with them, you walk away feeling lighter. We wonder if the difference between them and the difference in ourselves is that they live with a driven purpose, something that we all wish to have in life.
