31 Days of Forgiveness

So today is the first day of the "31 Days" challenge!  Basically, I am going to try to write about one topic for 31 days. I have kind of picked a difficult topic, but am hoping that it will be an encouragement to someone else out there.  Forgiveness is such a hard thing.  It is not a normal human inclination.  It is sometimes the last thing on earth that we want to do.  Honestly, it is one of the hardest things I have had to do.  But it is so worth it and the consequences of not doing it are pretty devastating. So please join me over the next 31 days as I talk about forgiveness.  Here are some of the ideas that I am going to explore...

What Forgiveness is and is not

How God Forgives

Forgiving Ourselves

Forgiving God

Joseph and His Journey to Forgiveness

The Fallout of Unforgiveness

Grace

Mercy

Forgiveness and Reconciliation

So, what really is forgiveness?  Is it forgetting? Is it a letting go of hurt? Tomorrow I will talk about the meaning of forgiveness.
