"Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." (Colossians 3:12-15)
This is an important season...for forgiveness. I cannot imagine wishing someone Merry Christmas if I have unforgiveness in my heart toward them. May we take the words above to heart this holiday season, recognize the amazing grace we have received and continually receive every moment of every day, and extend that same forgiveness and grace to every person in our lives, allowing the love of God to pour forth into every relationship.
