Unforgiveness

Forgiveness sounds like a great idea. We love to be forgiven for something. So why is it so hard to extend forgiveness to someone else? Because if we need to forgive, it means we need to deal with a hurt or an offense that can still feel so raw. All it takes is one word, one memory, one person and the hurt and pain we felt can be so real now. But forgiveness is not about condoning what the other person has done, it’s about releasing the hold unforgiveness has on us, and that release is a process.
