“Forgiveness means that I continually am willing to forgive the other person for not being God - for not fulfilling all my needs. I, too, must ask forgiveness for not being able to fulfill other people’s needs…The interesting thing is that when you can forgive people for not being God, then you can celebrate that they are a reflection of God.”-Henri Nouwen
The forgiveness I called to release with open hands - with an open heart I too accept this gift from God. You, him, her, me, we are beautiful-ever-maturing-growing-learning through the interwoven reality of our weakness and His strength, our brokeness and His wholeness, our longings and His pursuit of everlasting love to fill all in all. We have been washed by the blood of the Lamb and daily He is dressing us inside-out as a pure and spotless Bride…fashioned in His image!
