SABRINA
Recently, listening to the radio, I learned that the only creatures a bear will allow to eat with them is a skunk. The commentator pointed out that perhaps the reason is obvious - the cost of not living in peace with skunks is just too high!
There are many things in life that, if we give in to, will cost us far too much. The cost of unforgiveness is a prime example. How much pain is generated when we are unable to forgive - in marriages, with families, friends, between nations. We pray, forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Not only did Jesus forgive those who crucified him over 2000 years ago, He continues to forgive us when we crucify with thoughts, words, and deeds.
Perhaps the secret of learning to forgive is most clearly seen in the life of Jesus. If today finds you harboring unforgiveness, I encourage you to take that first step and forgive those who you feel have wronged you. You will be the one freed...Go today forgiving as you have been forgiven.
