The Beatitudes are very helpful for the Christ follower; they teach the character and lifestyle we should emulate. Christ said, "God blesses those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy" (Matthew 5:7). Mercy is a compassionate and forgiving response that a person gives even when he or she has been wronged.

Tonight we talked about forgiveness and how it frees us. I can personally testify that harboring ill feelings is like a growing cancer. It sickens you and saddens those around you. You will find peace in forgiving others, or in taking the steps needed to resolve an issue. Even if the other person is not responsive, you will be freed of the burden.
