Very often people are afraid to forgive because they assume that if they forgive, injustice will triumph. Yet the counterintuitive wisdom of Christ reveals that the very opposite is true. It is forgiveness alone that has the capacity to break the chains of injustice and give us the possibility of a new future — a future unchained from the past and free of bitterness.
— Brian Zahnd
I needed this today. I keep forgiving and will be in a really good place, and then just out of the blue these feelings well up of anger within me. Have just been trying to be quiet through it. It’s based on that feeling though, of being treated unjustly. Have to let it go…again…and again… 🙂 Thank you, and bless you! –Anne
