A spirit of reconciliation is a strong tool to carry in your package as you advocate for your children, as you conduct your daily chores, as you interact with co-workers, your family and your church family. After Jesus taught the disciples the well-known Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6, he then advised about forgiveness which is required for reconciliation:
Matthew 6:14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
