The Right Time To Forgive Your Kids
from Fathering Our Future · host Anthony Vandagriff
When should we forgive our children? No one enjoys being wronged, and no one easily forgets the injustices committed against them. We tend to hold on to those acts, especially when they are committed by the ones closest to us, and even more so when they come from our children. Should we wait until we feel they understand our pain? Should we hold off because we think we need to teach them a lesson? At what point do we forgive our kids? The Bible provides us with insight into how we should go about forgiveness. We have more than God’s example and how He forgives us; we also have an example of a father who was wronged by his son. While it never feels good to be hurt, disrespected, or wronged, there is a path we should choose when it comes to forgiving our children that might not always come naturally. – For more content make sure to check out https://fatheringourfuture.com/ and if you'd like to support this effort visit: https://fatheringourfuture.com/support/
