1 Peter 2:21
Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in His steps (NLT).
Prayer: Thank the Lord Jesus for his example of how to forgive. Ask him for the wisdom and grace to try to understand, and then let it go.
Action: Forgiving truly hurtful offenses is a delicate area. If you have issues of this kind, come together and talk about how to confront the situation (not just each other). You may want to review Chapter 16, “Feelings aren’t Facts — Always Sort It Out,” as well as the chapters previously mentioned. If one spouse feels very hurt, the other must reach out to understand. Talk together with God, asking for his help while addressing the hurt. (For discussion questions, see page 243 in Appendix A.)
