Forgiveness is a journey. We fear it because it costs so much, but grace wins when we keep choosing it. Forgiveness is not a moment; it’s a lifestyle.

Grace Wins - Over Fear
Hosea 3:1-3

God’s word to Hosea: “Go and love your wife again.”

Forgiveness is release, not recklessness.

How to Live the Forgiving Life:

Point 1: We all hurt, so name the hurt truthfully. Forgiveness begins with honesty.

Point 2: Release my right to retaliate. (Romans 12)

Point 3: Forgiveness requires faith.
Build your future, independent of the past. (Psalm 34:18)

“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.”
- Lewis Smedes

Point 4: Forgiveness is a choice to look forward with hope.
When you are finished with forgiveness; begin again. (Ephesians 4:32)

“Forgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a constant attitude."
-Martin Luther King Jr
