About This Quote
When we write a story, it takes time, effort and revisions. The same goes for forgiveness and faith. Forgiveness and faith are like writing a story; they take time, effort and revisions. There is no such thing as instant forgiveness or instant faith.
You can’t just give them in an instant and then expect everything to work out in the end. They both take time and effort and when we forgive people we must allow them to make amends for their actions. We cannot forgive them until we see that they have changed and we do not impose our own conditions on them.
When people are mean or cruel they do not change because of your forgiveness or faith. If you stop believing in them, you will get more distance between you two.
