 Let go of unforgiveness toward people in your life. Now, this is where the rubber meets the road with forgiveness. It can be really difficult to receive forgiveness for God because we know who we are and what we've done, and that can be difficult to come to grips with the idea of anybody forgiving us. But I've especially learned that if we're not comfortable with receiving forgiveness from God, we're even worse at offering forgiveness to people around us.
