David Dawson
Both repentance and forgiveness are unnatural acts. Our sinful tendency is to become self righteous, refusing to forgive or proud and unwilling to repent. Yet the scriptures teach us that we should always take the first step to forgiveness either by repenting or by forgiving. Although the first step to forgiveness is often difficult, especially when the other person refuses to repent, this pattern is modeled by Christ and is a source of great blessing to us.
