Day 7

Things I Need To Tell My Husband

Day 7

"Thank You for Your Forgiveness, I Will be Forgiving too."

Be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.

Luke 6:36

If you want to make love last a lifetime, you and your husband will have to master the art of forgiveness.

One day, Peter asked Jesus about forgiveness. "Just how many times am I required to forgive a person? About seven?" Jesus answered, "seventy seven times." Jesus knew the art of forgiving was learning how to keep on forgiving. 

Granting forgiveness is hard when you have been hurt by the one you love. It's hard, but it is not impossible.  Bitterness, anger, and regret are emotions that have no place in your marriage. Ask God for His help. He will help you put aside any anger, hurt and disappointment. Ask God to make you a tool of reconciliation and healing in your marriage. Remember, you will never forgive someone more than God has forgiven you.

 Thank your husband today for the times he has extended forgiveness to you and let him know that you will try to always be forgiving.

Only the truly forgiven are truly forgiving.

C.S Lewis
