Broken Jars and New Beginnings – Finding Freedom in Forgiveness

An important, but less recognized, aspect of mental health is forgiveness. Studies have found that the act of forgiveness can lower our risk of heart attack; improve cholesterol levels and sleep; and reduce pain, blood pressure, and levels of anxiety, depression and stress. Forgiveness is about decluttering our minds from the anger and bitterness that hurts us so we can move toward improved heath and healing. In today’s post, I share a powerful testimony of forgiveness that God used to set me free.
