We forgive because He forgave us. That is basic christianity, yet have you ever had to forgive someone not just for hurting you but crushing you. I have and it took a long time. I had the desire to forgive but if I was honest I was still carrying around the hurt. Its so easy to say, “you must forgive.” I agree its true. I believe what God wants from us is the desire to forgive and continually taking our brokeness to him asking for his help and healing.
