The Blessing of Forgiveness

The gift of forgiveness has been offered to each of us, but there’s a necessary requirement for receiving that precious gift. God’s instructions reveal that forgiveness, whether received or given, is a wonderful blessing for everyone - "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you" (Matthew 6:14).
