Why does holding grudges kill our relationships? Because we're refusing to forgive like Jesus first forgave us. Some grudges are petty—the driver cutting us off in traffic, the offhand comment made by a friend—those we simply need to get over and move on from in kindness. Other grudges are not so easy to get past. It's in those moments that we need Jesus' example of forgiveness more than ever—to prevent those grudges from consuming and killing our relationships.
