Ephesians 4:32 Be kind to one another, forgiving one another even as God in Christ has forgiven you. If we want to have healthy relationships, we need to swim in the river of forgiveness frequently. We give ourselves lots of grace, let’s do that with others too. The better we know one another, the more we potentially have to over look in each other. That’s where kindness comes in. We can choose kindness, just like we choose forgiveness. The rewards are great when we live this way. Have as much grace for others as we have for ourselves! Forgiveness can seem like a huge mountain to climb, but what I have discovered is that if the mountain is enormous, stone by stone, each shovelful of the mountain that gets removed brings more and more freedom. Before we know it the thing that seemed unovercomeable is overcome! So whether you are the one forgiving, or the one asking for forgiveness, lets do both graciously. Day by day, hour by hour, as we choose forgiveness, even moment by moment, we can improve our relationships, and improve our life. So, everyday, in every way, be kinder than necessary.
