How do you forgive when there is no apology coming? You still remember exactly what they said, and even just seeing their name can bring the whole thing right back to the surface...
This is where the mind of Christ begins changing how we respond. Colossians 3:13 tells us to forgive “as the Lord has forgiven you.” Jesus did not wait for us to make things right before extending grace; He bore the cost Himself, and those of us who have received that kind of mercy cannot keep demanding payment from everyone who has hurt us.
The hurt can still be acknowledged for what it was, but forgiveness frees you from rehearsing the debt and placing yourself in the position of collecting it. Entrust justice to God, release the resentment, and ask Christ to teach you how to see that person through the grace you have received.🙏🏼
