Pray Like This: Forgive Our Debts [Pastor Nathan Ward]
FORGIVENESS can be a ONE-WAY STREET: you can forgive someone who has NO REMORSE, thinks they’re TOTALLY INNOCENT, or even SOMEONE DEAD.
FORGIVENESS doesn’t mean there are NO CONSEQUENCES. There can be JUSTICE UNDER THE RULE OF LAW. It DOESN’T TURN A BLIND EYE to LEGAL, FINANCIAL, or RELATIONAL WRONGDOING. It can still REQUIRE RESTITUTION.
GENUINE FORGIVENESS helps us to ACCEPT CERTAIN LOSSES and MOVE ON TOWARDS A LIFE OF FREEDOM. This all becomes part of our HUMAN STORY.
