Jesus Teaches Me to Forgive

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

Sometimes people say things that hurt your feelings or do something unkind. When that happens, it can be hard not to stay upset or angry. But Jesus teaches His followers to forgive.

Forgiving means choosing not to hold onto anger or try to get back at someone. It means letting go of the hurt and trusting God to help make things right. This does not always feel easy, but it is something Jesus helps you learn.

God forgave us through Jesus. Because He showed us such great love and mercy, we can learn to forgive others too. When you forgive someone, your heart becomes lighter and more peaceful.

Each time you choose kindness and forgiveness, you are following Jesus’ example. He helps you grow a heart that loves others the way He loves you.

Prayer:
Jesus, help me forgive when someone hurts my feelings. Teach me to be kind and patient like You. Fill my heart with love so I can treat others the way You want me to. Amen.
