Letting It Go TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him and let it drop (leave it, let it go), in order that your Father Who is in heaven may also forgive you...” (Mark 11:25, AMP) TODAY’S WORD Everyone has been hurt, offended, betrayed, and mistreated at some point. Sometimes those wounds are small and easy to move past, but other times, they are deep and take time to heal. The important thing is that we choose to forgive so that we can open the door to God’s forgiveness and healing in our own lives. Forgiveness is such a powerful tool. Forgiveness sets us free and draws us closer to our heavenly Father. One of the first things my mother did when she found out that she had stage four cancer of the liver was to ask the Lord to search her heart for any unforgiveness. She didn’t want anything to block her prayers for God’s healing. And now more than twenty years later, she still has a perfectly clean bill of health. Whenever we pray, let us invite the Lord to search our heart. Choose to forgive anyone that has hurt us. As we walk in forgiveness, we’ll experience His hand of blessing in ways we never thought possible, and we will move forward in the abundant life He has in store for us. A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father in heaven, I invite You to search my heart and mind. I choose forgiveness so that I can receive Your forgiveness in return. I love You and bless You today. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
