the cost of forgiveness
Some things seem easier left alone. We bury pain, justify grudges, and carry resentment like armor … but that armor can turn into a cage. The truth is, when we refuse to forgive, we’re the ones who end up bound, shackled not only to the past, but away from the present and the future we've been designed to enjoy.
Unforgiveness doesn’t just hurt relationships - it hardens our hearts and stifles our joy. But what if healing didn’t start with fixing the past, but by letting go of its grip on the present? What if grace could break what bitterness built? There’s a freedom in forgiveness we aren’t meant to live without.

There’s nothing quite like the freedom of knowing that you’re forgiven - not because you earned it, but because someone chose to show you grace anyway. Deep down, most of us carry the weight of regrets, mistakes, and moments we wish we could undo. That kind of weight wears on us. But real forgiveness? It lifts the burden & breathes life into places we thought were beyond repair.
And when you've tasted that kind of grace, it begins to reshape how you live. It loosens the grip of bitterness. It softens what’s hardened. It makes room for healing - not just for you, but through you, too. Because the freedom of being forgiven doesn’t end with you … it changes how you navigate the whole world.
