(Jesus continued) “Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him; and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, and says, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
Luke 17:3, 4
Lord when You talked to Your disciples about forgiveness You sure didn’t leave any room for discussion about it. You never left one loophole for when we didn’t have to forgive. You told us to ALWAYS forgive.
Thank You Lord for giving us so many examples of how to forgive.
Thank You for forgiving those that were so cruel to You when You were dying on the cross.
Thank You that You are there to help us because forgiveness is often very hard…in fact at times it seems nearly impossible without Your help.
Thank You that we can know without a shadow of a doubt that forgiveness IS possible with Your help.
Thank You for Your forgiveness because I sure need that every day.
Thank You Lord.
