Forgiveness

One powerful thing that I brought home from the Women's Conference this past weekend was the message on forgiveness. The speaker had us make a list of all of the people we felt we needed to forgive. It seemed like an easy enough task. She reminded us that God will NOT forgive us if we do not forgive others. Can you imagine? Missing Heaven because of unforgiveness in our hearts... Very eye opening. Even little offenses that we end up holding a grudge over can cause us so much stress and bitterness. I dare say that most of the time we don't even know what the person did or said after a few months, yet we hold on to that junk. I believe it's no wonder we are sick in body and sore all of the time, due to the physical problems that unforgiveness causes us.

So, are their people whom you need to extend forgiveness to? Make today your forgiveness day. Make a phone call, write a letter, send a card, or email someone today. Whatever you have to do, MAKE IT HAPPEN. Release people whom have offended you, knowingly and unknowingly. Then, receive your forgiveness from God!!!

I have a treat for my readers... I'm asking my sweet husband to write my next Blog for me. He has a Word that WE ALL NEED to hear. I hope he can condense it to fit in this blog :)
We will be ministering this Sunday in Indiana, so say a little prayer for us.

From My House to Yours,
