• Forgiveness IS essential and one of the greatest forces for healing In a marriage
• Degrees of difficulty in forgiving
  • Jesus on the cross of those who crucified him
  • Small Issues, e.g. husband or wife forqeting to do something or making you late
  • Big issues, e.g. unfaithfulness
• Forgiveness, is first and foremost, a choice, not a feeling
• Question is not, “Do we feel like forgiving?

Question IS, “Will we forgive? Will we let go of our self-pity / demand for justice / desire to retaliate?”

What does forgiveness mean to you?  Have you been forgiven, or had to forgive someone recently?  Do you find it easy, or hard to forgive?
