What I'm thankful for: January 22

Today I'm thankful for...

Forgiveness!

forgiveness
Like most, or even all or my readers, I am a human being. As a human being, I do some pretty dumb things, usually on a daily basis. I hurt people's feelings with my words and actions. I hurt God through my sins. Sometimes I even hurt myself because of things I do. Thankfully, there is a concept called forgiveness. Forgiveness allows sins to be wiped clean and hearts to be mended. Forgiveness lets you have a second chance with God, others, and yourself. Matthew 6:14-15 says "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." Forgiveness will set you free and let you quit stewing over past hurts. It's not easy, but it's definitely worth it.
