$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

When Jesus taught about forgiving someone who has hurt you 7 times a day, the disciples said, \u201cIncrease our faith!<\/em>\u201d (Luke 17) because they knew it was an impossible challenge he put before them. He then said that having faith the size of a mustard seed is enough to move mountains into the sea.<\/p>\n

This is not about performing physical miracles. Rather, it is about how we can create new miraculous realities. The mountains represent offense. With just a little confidence in these new realities\u2026 in yourself, in the offender, in unity, in reconciliation, in relationships, in love\u2026 habitual offenders can be forgiven, reconciliation can happen, and relationships can be restored. Entire mountains of offense, bitterness, resentment, anger, and even hatred, can be thrown into the sea, removing the barriers between the offender and the victim.<\/p>\n

We have to believe this is true. That this is an alternate reality. This is what faith means here.<\/p>\n

Create a new reality by forgiving someone. There! You\u2019ve moved a mountain!<\/p>\n
