My desire is to stand up and brush myself off when I make mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

God's forgiveness allows us to be honest with ourselves. We recognize our imperfections, admit our failures, and plead to God for clemency.

Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again.

There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.

Forgiveness is about empowering yourself, rather than empowering your past.

The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.
