The Gift of Forgiveness
Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.—Colossians 3:13 (NIV)
Are you an over-thinker? Instead of releasing your problems to God, do you agonize over solving them, convinced that if you could just figure it out, everything would work out? This exhausting exercise leaves us feeling spiritually empty. Instead, focus your energy on God.
Heavenly Father, sometimes I need help focusing on You and not my fears. Keep me obedient to You and help me trust Your will.

Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.—Colossians 3:13 (NIV)

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.—Psalm 91:11 (NIV)

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.—Romans 5:8 (NIV)
