Many of us have been taught that forgiveness is a choice and we are to choose to forgive. As a result, we may try to muster up enough willpower to offer forgiveness to someone who has wounded us. It can make us feel good about ourselves for a while, until that determination to forgive subsides and we are faced with those same feelings of unforgiveness all over again.

 

Nancy sees forgiveness as being a miracle not a choice. While we cannot create miracles, we can experience them — even the miracle of forgiveness. This book takes a powerful look at the miracle of forgiveness, and how that miracle can become our reality. In the end we will not be asking ourselves, “Do I choose to forgive?” but rather, “Am I able to forgive?” We will learn to look to God — the one who is able to make us able.
