Our exploration of forgiveness requires us to take a deeper, bigger view of not only the F Word, but also this G Word. We need words and images to talk about anything, including what we refer to as “”God.” Can you recognize and honor the ways you necessarily box-in that 3rd strand whenever you put words and images to it? Can you also find ways to hold yourself accountable to a bigger, deeper perspective than the one you can have by yourself? No matter where you are at with the “concept” at a given moment?
Talk about this together! Ask someone about their responses and struggles with this and really listen.
Talk with someone you trust about this. What did you learn? What did it make you wonder? What was the hardest part for you?
Didn’t do it yet? Where can you practice that it is easier so you can build your skills for the harder places?
Accepting the damage of hurt and wrongs in our relationships and world as inevitable/ normal is like walking around with pebbles in your shoes
