Like love, forgiveness is not a feeling. We must make the choice every day to forgive. Perhaps you've heard the phrase "forgive and forget." It's hard to forget when something reminds us of an injustice, and we feel anger all over again after we thought we've forgiven. Some injustices go deeper than others. This is why forgiveness isn't always a one and done event. Even though we feel like we can't forgive or don't want to forgive- we must surrender it to the Lord despite what we're feeling in those moments. He is faithful and will help us through the process of forgiveness when we choose it. It's for our freedom. It releases us from the bondage of anger, frustration, and resentment. Jesus gave us His example of forgiveness on the cross. It was the ultimate sacrifice so we might forgive others too.

"We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God."
2 Corinthians 5:17-21
