Memory verse 20: If a conflict turns ugly, how can

Memory verse 20: If a conflict turns ugly, how can you heal the wounds of disappointment and hurt? The answer is forgiveness. Even if he or she didn’t ask for forgiveness.

Why should we forgive? Simply put, because Christ forgives you. Beyond that, the dangers of harboring unforgiveness are many.

Bitterness and resentment take hold and affect your thought patterns, which in turn affect your actions because our actions stem from what is in our heart. If you harbor unforgiveness in your heart, justify it, relive it, feed it, it will poison you. You might believe you are punishing the person, but you are in fact hurting yourself, blocking God from working in your life.

Gary Thomas says in his book, Sacred Marriage, “forgiveness is a process, not an event. It is rarely the case that we are able to forgive ‘one time’ and the matter is settled. Far more often we must relinquish our bitterness a dozen times or more, continually choosing to release the offender from our judgment.”

Memory verse 19: I had to memorize this with a kids song! But hey, it worked — for me and the kids! 😆

it’s amazing to think that these wonderful fruits in life cannot be conjured up by one’s self. They can only be produced by the Holy Spirit.
