Balancing the Scales of Justice with Forgiveness and Repentance will teach you how to forgive the actions of others, eventually leading you to the ultimate reconciliation and a renewed relationship. Author Randall J. Cecrle was involved in lay prison ministry for over fifteen years, and brings a wealth of experience and inspirational anecdotes to guide you from anger and bitterness to love and peace. With verses from Scripture and real-life examples, Cecrle demonstrates how to forgive those who have hurt you. Learn how to make changes in your life so you can avoid hurting others and become a positive influence. Cecrle also teaches you the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation-forgiveness is not forgetting, it is not about the painful emotions going away, and it is not conditional on an apology from the offender. In the final chapters, Cecrle discusses repentance, trustworthiness, whether or not we are a product of our environment, and how to change our thoughts, words, and actions. Just as it takes two to create a conflict, all parties involved must also be willing to take steps toward a peaceful resolution. Balancing the Scales of Justice with Forgiveness and Repentance will shepherd you on a spiritual journey toward reconciliation.
