When you forgive, it's not pretending that nothing ever happened. No. It's it's recognizing that that something did but choosing not to allow that offense to become the authority in the home. That's what forgiveness is. That's what grace is. I'm not gonna allow that thing to take hold of my heart because once it does, brokenness happens. Bitterness happens. Neglect happens. All of those things follow the minute we decide that we are not going to extend grace.
