Weekly Devotional
Sunday ~ October 3, 2010

Suggested Reading: Matthew 18:32-35; 2 Corinthians 2:10


Reflection: Are you truly a forgiving Christian?

Inspiration: How can you refuse to forgive those who ask you for forgiveness when Jesus forgives you everytime you ask Him? Forgive and He will forgive you. Withhold forgiveness and He will not forgive you. If He can forgive you through your daily sins, who are you to deny another who asks you for forgiveness? Forgive and release that person and that weight from your shoulders.

Heavenly Father, we come to you through your precious Son, Jesus. Please show us and guide us through forgiveness of those who have hurt us. Lord God, please remind us of all the pain and suffering your Son went through. And that even though He did not deserve it, He still forgave and prayed for the people as they crucified Him. Lord God, please remove arrogance and bitterness from us. Please fill us with more of You and none of us. We were destined for Hell! But You chose to give us a way to be forgiven! Thank You Lord for forgiving us. Thank You for you patience. Lord, please open the eyes of the blind and the ears of the deaf. Show us that true followers of Your Son are endless forgivers. Amen!
