Hey !
I hope you have enjoyed our journey through 2nd Corinthians as much as I have. We still have a long way to go, and I'm so excited about what God has to say to us!
On Sunday, we talked about forgiveness, and how it loosens the chains around us when we extend it.
I just wanted to share eight other reasons why forgiveness is important, according to the Mayo Clinic (yes, the Mayo Clinic!)
Check this out. Forgiveness can lead to:
Healthier relationships
Improved mental health
Less anxiety and stress
Lower blood pressure
Fewer symptoms of depression
A stronger immune system
Improved heart health
Improved self-esteem
Wow! No wonder God wants us to forgive, and set the ultimate example by forgiving us "while we were yet sinners".
Once again, I want you to ask yourself, "Who do I need to extend forgiveness to?"
Forgiveness will set you free!
See you Sunday!
Living a passionate mission,
