“Live a Life of Gratitude and Trust” "Why should I forgive them when they haven't even apologized?"
I get it. If you are watching this and are feeling that someone has done you wrong and left you hanging without even acknowledging or apologizing, you may feel like this is grounds for not forgiving them. The truth is that until you have forgiven, you are held captive. It actually takes -work- to hold a posture of unforgiveness. I am not saying you should forget. Of course, we should all keep ourselves safe from harm. I am saying that God can give us the strength to forgive in any situation, and He truly does desire for us to forgive. If someone has wronged you and you can’t find it in your heart to forgive, why not give the situation to God, asking Him to work on your heart to make room for forgiveness? The person who hurt you may never apologize, but your act of forgiveness will allow you to shift from captivity to freedom with God by your side.
