How To Forgive
This thing called forgiveness sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? But let’s get real for a moment. Experiencing the power of forgiveness in our everyday lives – and leaving hurt and bitterness behind – is going to take more than platitudes and pretty words. We need practical, rubber-hits-the-road knowledge. We need to know how to forgive.
LIFE APPLICATION QUESTIONS
- Have you ever thought, “That person should apologise to me – and I’m not going to forgive him until he does!” What was the result of that line of thinking?
- What’s the price of carrying unforgiveness around in your heart?
- Read Matthew 5:44-45 slowly and carefully. Ask God to heal your heart and help you to follow Jesus’ teaching to love your enemy and pray for the one who hurt you.
- Picture in your mind’s eye one person who has hurt you deeply, someone you’re struggling to forgive. Grab a pen and spend a few minutes writing out a prayer for him or her. Bring him or her to the Lord as best you can.

About this Plan
Here’s the truth: forgiving people who’ve hurt us isn’t an easy thing to do. And yet… we know that without forgiveness, we can easily fall into bitterness – and then the hurt will not go away, but grow. So how do you forgive and really mean it? Join Berni Dymet from Christianityworks, in a new video devotional series to ponder the importance – and power – of forgiveness.
