As we talk about relationships the reality of being hurt and hurting others is so obvious.
The Scriptures call us to: "Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you." Ephesians 5:32
Jesus is our example in the Process of Forgiveness:
- He recognized the problem - (Sin & Broken relationship)
- He made Himself vulnerable - (Became human and loved and was hurt)
- He experienced the pain and accepted the consequences - (Crucified)
- He released us from further obligation - (Jesus covers us!)
- He seeks to restore relationship - (He moves toward us!)
This is exactly what our process of Forgiveness is
- Recognize the problem
- Make yourself vulnerable
- Accept the consequences
- Release the offender from obligation
- Seek Relational Restoration
Scripture References: Matthew 18:21-35
