40 Day Revolution Day 3 Forgiveness Day

Jesus encouraged us in the Sermon on the Mount to forgive people that have sinned against us. In other words make this day a day of forgiveness and forget about how they have treated you in the past. Read Mattthew Chapter 6:14. This will bring to light the truth behind forgiveness. Make sure your heart is right so you are in right standing with God. Ask GOd if ther is anyone (friends, teacher, parents, brother, sister) who need to ask forgiveness from and then do it.

You may need to forgive someone else. Forgiving those who have hurt you could be really difficult. Many of you have no doubt been wronged by a parent, frind or someone else. When you forgive it helps you heal. Forgiveness is crucial to a vital walk with Jesus.

Make a list of people you haven't forgiven.
Ask God to help you forgive someone today.
When you have asked for forgiveness or forgiven this individual then scratch their name off the list.
