Thought For Today

(Jesus continued) “When his (servant that would not forgive) fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place. Then his lord summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you besought me; and should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ And in anger his lord delivered him to the jailers, till he should pay all his debt. So also My heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.” Matthew 18:31 – 35

Forgiveness….Lord You were showing those listening how Your heavenly Father forgave. Because He forgave we must also forgive. Not easy Lord….there are those time when we feel more justified in not forgiving. But….forgive we must. You show us why….You leave us no excuses. We are to forgive as You have forgiven and it is to come from the heart.

Thank You for Your help Lord. Often in the natural we can’t do it without Your help. So we thank You for helping us forgive.

Thank You Lord. Thank You.
