“I’m just not ready to forgive yet.”
“It wasn’t my fault; why should I apologize.”
The list is endless of reasons why fences exist between husbands and wives, family and friends. The hardest act is an apology especially when it isn’t your fault. The last thing you want to do is admit you were wrong.
Because of this reluctance, many relationships remain broken for years…for a lifetime. “I’m just not ready to forgive.” So often, death comes before fences can be torn down. Then, it doesn’t matter whose fault it was. Time has run out. It’s too late. Don’t let “too late” happen to you. Take those fences down while you can.
Great reminder. I reblogged to my blog. Thank you, Bonnie.

What a great reminder.
Forgiveness is the most important part of us to heal and get well, the bible is very helpful to understand why GOD wants us to forgive. I enjoyed your post today thanks for sharing.

Simple and to the point. Don’t let another minute go by in unforgiveness.
Yes indeed, Death may come before a mended fence.

“If only” are sad words I often hear at funerals and quite often they are uttered because a rift was never healed.
Good reminder. Thanks.

This friends, is a message that I know of no one who does not need to hear. Straight forward… to the point… simple truth.
yea so we are very stingy in forgiving. Then we lose relationship. May we ever remember that somebody had worse to ever be forgiving? Tks for sharing
