In this vulnerable episode of Let’s Have a Heart to Heart, host Nita Danielle invites listeners into her personal story of forgiveness—when it felt almost impossible. She opens up about confronting painful memories that left her marked by abandonment, abuse, and disappointment.

From a life-altering moment at a faith conference to a divine nudge at a new church, Nita shares how God patiently walked with her through the complicated, messy, and heart-wrenching process of forgiving what felt unforgivable. Along the way, she breaks down the misconceptions about forgiveness, including:

• Forgiveness is not reconciliation
• Forgiveness is not minimizing your pain
• Forgiveness does not mean forgetting
• Forgiveness is a choice to release, heal, and grow

Through scripture (like Mark 11:25 and Romans 8:28), emotional honesty, and spiritual insight, Nita shows us what it looks like to forgive by faith when the feelings aren’t there yet.

She also touches on:

• The physical and emotional toll of unforgiveness
• The power of God’s justice and empathy, as seen in the story of Lazarus
• How forgiveness unlocked healing and reconciliation with her biological father
• The freedom found in letting go and trusting God to be both healer and judge
