Forgiveness can feel like one of the hardest things God asks us to do—and yet, it’s also one of the most freeing.
The “Walking in the Freedom of Forgiveness” Bible Reading Plan was created to help you experience the healing power of God’s grace in your own life. Let these Bible verses about forgiving change your heart.
When we truly grasp the depth of God’s forgiveness toward us, we begin to see that forgiving others isn’t about excusing what happened; it’s about releasing the hold that bitterness and resentment can have on our hearts.
The 31-Day Bible Reading Plan: Bible Verses about Forgiving
