  1. Forgiveness - the very core of the gospel...I really liked this post - it speaks about someone's hope and hurt - and how that can be healed (dealt with). Bitterness is just a fickle thing - when it becomes anger it's dangerous. Forgiveness, to me, seems to have that same power - except in a life-giving way.
