When you ask someone for forgiveness, it's 
easy to assume that the other person will 
forgive you right away,

2
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:19,200
but that won’t necessarily be the case. You 
know how sincere you are, but they do not.

3
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:26,700
It may take some time for them to receive 
your forgiveness. After they accept forgiveness, 
it’s even more important

4
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:33,000
to understand that it will take time for 
them to trust you again. They need to see 
from your actions and words that

5
00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:40,600
you’ve learned from your mistakes. As Gary 
Chapman noted, “Forgiveness does not remove 
all the consequences.”

6
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:47,600
Give the other person space and time as they 
need it. Stand by your offer of forgiveness 
and allow them

7
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:53,300
the time they need to see you’ve truly changed.
