We know we're called to forgive as Christ has forgiven us, and forgiving the small hurts or offenses isn't usually a big deal. But we're also called to forgive the deep or recurring betrayals we experience, which are much more difficult. Yet by remembering how much we've been forgiven by God and that forgiveness is based on grace, not justice, we can allow forgiveness to flow through us and prevent the venom of unforgiveness from taking its deadly hold on our soul.
