- Forgiveness
“Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times? Jesus said to him, “ I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Matthew18:21- 22. Read up to verse 35
“Should you not, also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you? And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. “So shall My Heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.” 33- 35
…Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.” Matthew 6:11-12
People we find easy to forgive:
Our children
People we find hard to forgive:
Our spouses
Our friends
Our families
Our enemies - Ourselves
What is good for one is good for all. What you give to one, you can give to others.
To be continued.
Your thoughts are welcome
Relationship is something we cannot do without. Every one of our relationships will be tested. Openness to forgiving is the key to sustaining relationships. Determine not to allow differences kill your relationships. This blog will encourage you to forgive and overlook offenses for the purpose of sustaining life-long relationships. Be encouraged and feel free to share your thoughts. Luv, Yinka
