We have all encountered "stuff" in our lives. Over time we can find in our closets, garages, and attics that the stuff we have tends to accumulate and multiply. We are confronted with a simple process:
The same is true for our hearts! Over time we discover both good and bad elements that need to be examined and sorted - what needs to stay and what needs to go?

Forgiveness is one of those great teachings of Jesus that is easy to hear and hard to do. Yet when we say "I'm sorry" and "I forgive you" the grace and peace of Christ flows into our hearts. God forgives us, and the Lord invites us to embrace this reality in our daily lives with one another.
