To live sacred lives requires that we live at the edge of what we do not know.
- Anne Hillman
I may find it much easier to talk about forgiveness as a way of expressing God's love than to put forgiveness into practice.
Sometimes, the people I love the most can cause me the most pain. Perhaps, they are not aware that something they have said or done has caused me emotional pain.
I may never understand what motivates the actions of others, but what I do not is this : God loves me and will help me work through every feeling of loss or betrayal.
Trusting in God, I realize that I can forgive - if not their actions, then certainly, the people themselves.
God's spirit lives within me and the ones I love. And through forgiveness, I let God's healing light shine through.
As I forgive, I release a flow of God's healing love out to others.
