There is one key that is absolutely necessary for a relationship to be restored. It requires forgiveness. I’ve never seen a broken relationship restored without forgiveness. 

Main Points:

1. A relationship can break down from neglect.  A relationship can break down from conflict.  A relationship can break down from misunderstanding.  The world is literally filled with broken relationships.  We see it all around us.  It’s possible you have some broken relationships in your life.

2. I know God can heal the pain in our hearts and enable us to offer forgiveness to others.

3. Let’s put our faith in the God who can do the impossible. Let’s ask him to do miracles and to restore our relationships, and let’s be willing to do the hard work of forgiveness and reconciliation.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Romans 5:10-11 – “For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!  Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.”

Colossians 3:13 – “Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another.  Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”
