In the Weekend to Remember Marriage Getaway, we learned that generous forgiveness:
2. Is applied freely.
3. Is expressed graciously, keeping no record of wrongs.
4. Leads to true security.
So good. Here are a few more criteria to add about generous forgiveness:
5. Isn't withheld if the person hasn't apologized.
6. Leads to true healing.
7. Puts you on the same level as someone, not raised above them.
8. Is based on Jesus' forgiveness for ourselves, not the situation.
What characteristics would you add? I'd love to lengthen this list!
