Colossians 3:13 NLT
13 Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.
This has to be the hardest thing for anyone to over come. I mean to let go and forgive the most deadly sin. Because, a sin is a sin no matter how big or evil it may seem.
But with sin comes grief, hurt, and consequences. Forgiving some is not that easy because you still have that feeling that you have been betrayed, and why should I let go because they are just gonna hurt me again, and then it becomes a trust issue, why should you trust them again.
But, in Colossians 3:12, is says;
Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.
Forgiving is not forgetting! As hard as it is to accept someone's apology think about the other side, what if you the one needing forgiveness. You're the one dealing with the grief and you can't live with yourself, because you have hurt someone you care aboyt. This is why God says to be kind and gentle in the sight of humility.
