I used to think forgiving meant being naive. Joseph in Genesis 50:19-21 changed that view. The Hebrew words salach and yashar show that forgiveness can coexist with wisdom. Joseph released guilt but acted prudently with his brothers. That was a revelation. I can forgive without being blind. I can let go of resentment and still protect my heart. It takes courage to release, and sense to navigate carefully—but both are part of God’s way. I feel freer knowing I can forgive and still be wise. #Forgiveness #BibleTruth #ChristianReflection #FaithAndWisdom #TheVerseYouSkipped
