FORGIVING WHEN IT IS TOO HARD

 Bearing with one another and forgiving one another if anyone has a grievance
against another. Just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you are also to forgive.
Colossians 3:13

Forgiveness can be a tricky thing. Some months back I found out that someone I was very close to was saying hurtful and untrue things about my husband and I. While my husband and I know these things are untrue, we even have proof, the person insists they are right and they continue to talk behind our back.

It breaks my heart, but it also makes me angry. Lies and gossip are horrible and can destroy. My husband and I apologized for anything we may have done to upset, offend, or hurt. Our prayer was that by apologizing relationships could be mended. But our apology hit a brick wall. There was no apology back, no acceptance, no reconciliation. At first, I was even angrier. I wanted to take back my apology and hurt them back.
