Forgiveness

This week I chose the topic of forgiveness. This is something that we all can learn from and continue to strive towards. 

Here are the questions for the week:

Review 2 Corinthians 2:1–11; Matthew 6:14–15; Doctrine and Covenants 64:9–10. Then respond to the following questions:

·      What were the people of Corinth commanded to do “if any have caused grief”?

·      What blessings do we see if we forgive? 

·      What is the danger in failing to forgive?

 ​ 

I think that this is a great topic to study for the week. 

The people of Corinth were commanded that they needed to forgive.

There are many blessings that we can see if we forgive those that do us harm. The first and most important is that if we forgive then we will be able to be forgiven by the Lord. We can also feel peace and love in our hearts rather than carrying a grudge and we can be healthier and happier.

If we do not forgive then we are not going to be forgiven by the Lord. We can also feel anger and contention in our lives and let it dwell on us.

Overall, I think that its so important to forgive those around us. We can be so much happier if we don't hold anger and malice in our hearts. The Lord is willing to forgive and we need to make sure that we are willing to do so also.
