For Reflection 

1)      What grievance do you wish you could forgive, but cannot?  What are the circumstances?  What holds you back?

      2)      Identify some practical ways that you could “give your hurts to God”. 

3)      Is there any situation in which you believe people should not forgive those who have harmed them?  Have you seen forgiveness backfire or not bring about healing?

4)      Have you ever hurt someone and not been forgiven?  What was the impact on you?

 

The confession of evil works is the first beginning of good works.
St. Augustine -
