Day 19: March 10th
Forgiveness
“When people hurt us, we often keep our distance from them. Or worse, we try to get back at them. We hardly ever do something nice for them in return! Yet God does just that when he forgives our sins. God doesn’t always do what makes sense to us. God does what’s loving and merciful instead, even when we do something wrong. We didn’t earn his love, but God gives it to us freely anyway. God gave us Jesus as well, who gave us his whole life – not because we deserved it, but because we needed it.
God wants us forgive one another, just as God forgives us. Think about somebody you need to forgive. Can you ask God for help to forgive that person?” – Karla Manternach
