How are we to respond when someone has wronged us? The power to forgive we see lived out in David’s story doesn’t come from pretending that what happened didn’t hurt, or finding inner strength to get over it. It comes from the reality that he himself has experienced God’s forgiveness. When we start to understand the depth of God's love and forgiveness towards us, it starts to change how we see the people who have hurt us. It doesn't mean what they did was okay. It doesn't mean the relationship will ever be what it was before. But it does mean that your pain doesn't have to have the final word.
