Forgiveness.

Wow! We haven't posted in FOR ever! That needs to change.



Today we would like to share something our Pastor preached about a few weeks ago.

It is about forgiveness.

If you live in a big family or even a small family you may realize how hard it is to be nice to your siblings sometimes!

When we get mad at one of our siblings how often do we say we are sorry?
It is our pride that is getting in the way. Lately we have been making a habit of saying sorry, and it has really helped us out.
After we pridefully hurt our siblings we should examine why we are mad at them, and was it necessary to be so mad?
Yes, my younger sibling just scribbled all over my address book, but did I need to blow up at them?
No matter how bad it is or even if it isn't really our fault, we should go immediately and seek their forgiveness.

We have realized as older sisters how it has made an impression on our younger siblings.
"Wow, she just came and apologized!"

It is our pride that is saying, "Well, they did that why should I apologize??"

Reading and praying really made us realize how selfish and hurtful we have been sometimes!

We love our siblings so much, and when we hurt them we are thankful for God's grace that helps us swallow our pride and ask forgiveness.

That was really on our hearts and we wanted to share!
We will try to blog more! =D

If there is something else from the Bible that you would like us to do a post about please comment and let us know!
It is fun to share our beliefs and at the same time strengthen them!
Enjoy your Monday!
In Christ,
~Hannah, Ruth, and Sarah Keller~
