(04/15/12)
How can we forgive people who choose to mistreat us? "They said 'I'm sorry,' but it's at least the tenth time! I don't know what to do. I am told that it's my Christian duty to forgive, and the Lord knows I've tried. But each time I forgive, they change for a little while and then returns to the same behavior.
