Love without Keeping Count

Life with others sometimes calls for forgiveness. When it does, look first at the mercy your Father has given rather than counting how many chances remain. Love reaches beyond what arithmetic can measure.

If your heart does not soften easily, tell me honestly. Ask for strength to address things rightly instead of feeding the desire to retaliate alone. Hold wrongdoing accountable while leaving room to see the person beyond your resentment.

Move sincerely toward the forgiveness before you, as you are able today. Your Father wants to help you grow in mercy. Walk the path of treating others with the love you have already received.
