Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
To mend what’s been broken, we must forgive, so our hearts have permission to heal. Just like Christ forgives us every day without banging what we’ve done over our heads.
