God calls us into a relationship with Him that involves the reversal of the effects of sin in our lives. Sin does damage to us and to those around us. God is calling us to step into a path of healing and restoration.

One of the greatest areas of struggle in our lives has to do with the hurts, offense, and damage done to us by others. From the time we are young we begin to be hurt or offended by what others do and say to us. I bet if I were to ask you to recall a hurt or offense from your childhood you could. Maybe you could remember quite a few. It is hard to let those things go and yet in order to be healthy we must begin to work towards forgiveness.

Forgiveness is a gift that frees us from hurt. It allows us to heal deep in our hearts and minds. God actually requires us to forgive repeatedly. I know spiritual leaders who do not understand forgiveness. They end up being wounded healers. You and I need to avoid the trap of unforgiveness and begin to work out forgiving everyone who has done us wrong. Join us this weekend to receive the gift that forgiveness is. God wants you to receive and use it to get real healing in your life.
