Forgiveness alone can’t bring Reconciliation.

Repentance alone can’t bring Reconciliation.

Forgiveness is a raw and intimate act, a holy act, offered in the power and authority of Jesus. It’s not “letting it go”.

Repentance is also a raw and intimate act, a humbling, a brokenness, a change of heart. It’s not “let’s move on”.

It’s when the kiss of Forgiveness is met with the kiss of Repentance that Reconciliation is joyfully born.
