Passage: Colossians 3:13
When it comes to forgiveness, we know we're supposed to give it, so why do we refuse? Why do we get stuck on how we have been wronged instead of allowing ourselves to forgive.
The New Testament commands us to “bear with each other and forgive one another if any of [us] has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave [us]” (Colossians 3:13 NIV).
Biblical forgiveness always starts with a look in the mirror. It asks, “What have I done and how have I been forgiven?” If we ever want to move on, we must offer that same kind of forgiveness to others.
