Jesus Helps Me Forgive

📖 “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”
—Ephesians 4:32 (NKJV)

Sometimes people hurt your feelings. A friend might say something unkind, or someone might leave you out. When that happens, it can be hard to forgive. You might feel angry or sad inside.

Jesus understands those feelings, but He also teaches you how to forgive. He forgave you first. Because He loves you and has forgiven your sins, He helps you forgive others too. Forgiving does not mean pretending nothing happened. It means choosing not to hold anger in your heart.

When you forgive, your heart feels lighter. Holding onto anger can make you feel heavy and upset. But when you ask Jesus to help you forgive, He gives you the strength to let go.

Forgiveness shows others what Jesus is like. When you choose kindness instead of anger, you reflect His love. Jesus helps you forgive because He wants your heart to be free.

Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for forgiving me. When someone hurts my feelings, help me forgive them. Take away my anger and fill my heart with Your love. Amen.
