I've completed the Tutu 30 Days of Forgiveness Challenge. It surprised me in some respects. There was a person from the past with whom I had a falling out. Many years have past since then and I thought all had been forgiven. Yet, with this challenge I realized that I still need to release the relationship to complete the forgiveness process, which, by the grace of God, I was able to do. Check out this video if you are interested in pursuing forgiveness further.

Tutu Global Forgiveness Challenge
One of the inspiring and insightful Christians in our day is Desmond Tutu. He has started, as of today, a Global Forgiveness Challenge. Forgiveness, likely for most of us, is or has been a challenge, especially if there has been great loss or hurt due to cruelty, evil, oppression, injustice, abuse, etc. However, it is possible, with the help of God, thanks to the grace, saving work, and influence of Jesus. I don't think we ever become "experts" at forgiveness, given the human condition. However, with practice, hopefully we continue to learn and grow through the journey. So I've signed up for this 30 day challenge, how about you?
