Faith makes all things possible...love makes all things easy. -D.L. Moody
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32
Forgiving someone when they have wronged you is probably one of the hardest things to do in life. But faith in knowing the relationship might be reunited once again is what keeps us going. It motivates us to go above and beyond what man is accustomed to. The love that we have for that person, as Moody said, makes it easy.
As I think about the Lord’s love and forgiveness to me, I wonder how can I not forgive those that have done me wrong; those that have stabbed me in the back, forsaken me, lied about me, etc. None of that compares to what I did to my Saviour- for my sin put Him on the cross but His love for me kept Him there.
