When traveling from Chicago to St. Joseph on the train one evening I began to reflect on forgiveness.  There were some people in my past that deserved to stay in my past.  I granted them a second chance in my life.

You guessed it, they disappointed me.

There is power in forgiveness.  I can’t tell you how many burdens have been lifted by allowing myself to forgive.  Let’s be honest, God grants the gift of forgiveness everyday.  How can I walk around with an unforgiving spirit towards someone else?

Not everyone that we allow a 2nd chance in our life disappoints us.

The main thing is that you forgive.

I’m #SteeleThankful for the forgiveness that God grants me every morning.

What are you #SteeleThankful for?
