Something to Think About
What does it mean to forgive someone? What does forgiveness look like?
The Story
In today’s reading, St Paul is teaching about the importance of letting go of angry feelings and forgiving people who hurt us. God always loves us and forgives us, even when we do the wrong thing. In the same way, we should forgive others and be kind to them.
