Forgiveness is the choice to let go of resentment and find no fault against a person for wrong he has committed. This is God's nature and he calls Christians to forgive like he does. The ultimate evidence of God's forgiving nature is in the cross, where Jesus died so that we could be forgiven. In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus asks us to pray, "Forgive us our sins and we forgive those who sin against us" (Matthew 6:12).
