Forgiveness vs. Reconciliation: What’s The Difference?
Unfortunately, we often hold on to our anger, but deep down we know that forgiving others is the right thing to do. Even if you never receive an apology from them, remember that God commands us to forgive one another unconditionally. He says that if we fail to forgive others, He will not forgive us our sins.
Forgiveness does not automatically mean reconciliation; however, striving to reconcile the relationship should follow forgiveness on this journey of healing from offenses. Remember that while God doesn’t command reconciliation explicitly, He emphasizes forgiving others as a fundamental principle of love and compassion towards each other.” ~ Bill Greguska
