An important part of building a happy home is forgiveness.

Billy Graham’s late wife, Ruth, said that a good marriage is made up of two good forgivers.

Mark 11:25-26 says “And whenever you stand praying, if you have any­thing against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also for­give you your trespasses.  But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”

It’s been said that unforgiveness is like drinking deadly poison and waiting for the other person to die.  You are only hurting yourself when you’re unable to forgive.

We’ve got to learn how to say “I was wrong, please forgive me,” and more importantly, “I forgive you.”

Find a way to show forgiveness today to members of your family.  It’s a big step toward a Happy Home.
