The Friend He Forgave
For Kids and families
The story
Michael's friend had broken a promise, and Michael carried anger like a heavy backpack.
He prayed,
"God, I need strength to forgive."
Forgiveness didn't erase the hurt instantly, but choosing it loosened the straps on that backpack. Michael talked honestly with his friend, and they rebuilt trust.
Inside, Michael felt free.
The moral
Forgiveness brings healing.
