Hello, Good Evening I have had family members let me down before and I was deeply hurt. I know they are imperfect just as I am imperfect. God sent his only son Jesus to die on a cross over 2,000 years ago. He died for all of my past, present and future sins. Jesus also died for you and all your family members and my family members. We need to forgive because we have been forgiven. Time is also a great healer. Once we have forgiven the person or persons that have wronged us it sets us free. I am struggling now with forgiving a couple of people recently. I know with God's grace given to me I will be able to forgive.
