Be Kind and Forgive
Let’s face it...relationships bring challenges. Disagreements. Conflict. These blips—or sometimes major roadblocks—can be opportunities to grow closer...or apart. How can we be prepared for when these situations arise? How can we offer kindness and forgive fast?
Pray
Father, you are a God of forgiveness. Please give me a heart that can speak the truth in love, forgive completely, and usher in peace in my relationship. Show me the ways I can do this in my life starting now. Thank you for your example.
We’re empowered to forgive people because we know we are—and are constantly being—forgiven by God.
Read
Ephesians 4:32
Reflect
What do kindness and tender-heartedness look like in your relationship? What’s harder for you: to forgive, or to ask for forgiveness?
Respond
Talk to your partner about how to diffuse your next disagreement. Have a game plan that includes inviting God to soften your hearts and forgive each other as soon as possible.
