The Power of Forgiveness

 The Power of Forgiveness Summary Statement

Forgiveness produces a type of freedom that is practically unmatched. It frees both the giver and the receiver. While forgiveness is a commandment, it is a choice. Forgiveness is difficult, but, with the help of Jesus Christ and His Atonement, it is possible. When I am having difficulty forgiving someone, I will pray for the Lord's help. I have faith that He will help me forgive when it is difficult for me to do so.
