Forgiveness = Freedom

October 23, 2012 by Debbie 1 Comment

If you’ve lived long enough, chances are you’ve felt the pain of betrayal and hurt.
Hidden resentments and unforgiveness will weigh us down.
Don’t stay stuck in that trap!
Though forgiveness may never “feel” right, it will always “be” right.
Choosing to forgive doesn’t mean that the wrong never happened, it just means you won’t allow it to control your life anymore.
let it go. forgive. take the first step. move forward. be free.

If I could, I’d offer you a cup of coffee and would love a chance just to sit and talk, to hear your stories about life – the joys and the struggles too.

In whatever you’re facing today, my heart is that you might find some encouragement through these pages and fresh hope in God’s words ...
