Scripture

And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgining one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.

Ehpesians 4:32 NKJV

Famous Quotation

The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.

--Arthur J. Balfour

Poetry

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
There will always be sunshine after the rain.

Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall,
But God's always ready to answer your call.

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,
A word from His lips can calm every fear.

Your sorrows may linger throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish at dawn's early light.

The Savior is waiting somewhere above,
To give you His grace and send you His love.

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
God always sends rainbows after the rain.

--Unknown
