       Sometimes you need to talk it out. You need to get with the person, have coffee with him or her, and settle the issue. And it may have come to the point where you need to bring another person with you. And sometimes the situation is over, and doesn't need further elaboration, but just quiet forgiveness. But whatever the case, it is very important that at least you, yourself, are willing to forgive. You don't want to have anything that is interfering with your relationship with God. That's never good. The good news is that you can fix the problem right away by forgiving the person in your heart that you have a grudge against. You can go to prayer to God and forgive. Now, it may still be important for you to meet with the person, depending on the situation. And you should do this as soon as possible. Our hearts have to be right before God with others if we are going to in fact truly show love for God. John told us in his first epistle, in the fourth chapter, “If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen” (1 John 4:20, ESV).
