Today in church we heard a talk that ranks right up there among the best we've heard. It was given by a ward member who is a man who has lived enough of life that he knows what he is talking about. And talk he did...about giving the gift of forgiveness at Christmas time. It was powerful. It caused me to pause and think. We all have hurts that we are nursing and he advised us to just let them go. Just let them go and remember them no more. Forgiveness. What a great gift it is.
Today Is the Day to Forgive
Knowing how imperfect we are, surely we can extend healing forgiveness to those we love. Jesus said, “I, the Lord, will forgive whom I will forgive, but of you it is required to forgive all men” (D&C 64:10). Comfort and sweet peace will live in our homes when we forgive each other freely.
Is there someone in your life who perhaps needs forgiveness? Is there someone in your home, someone in your family … who has done an unjust or an unkind or an unchristian thing? All of us are guilty of such transgressions, so there surely must be someone who yet needs your forgiveness.”

We all need forgiveness, therefore we all need to forgive. What a great reminder, Vonnie.
