(Mat 6:12) And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
Our willingness to forgive the debts of others is an indication of the Lord’s forgiveness of our sin. After all, if the great debt of our sin has been forgiven by God… how easy it is to forgive the small debts owed to us by others.
Have we ever experienced God’s gracious forgiveness? If so, forgive those who are indebted to us. It is one of the greatest ways we can display Christ and His love to those around us.
May the Lord bless each one of us as we “Think On These Things”.

Hannah More said "Forgiveness saves us the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits." I agree. An unforgiving spirit does nothing to the person who has wronged us, but it sure does harm the old holding a grudge.
ReplyDeleteI've heard the lack of forgiveness described as a cancer that slowly eats away at the unforgiving. How true that is. Thank you again for your comments. Lord bless you.
