FORGIVEN
SCRIPTURE: If you forgive someone’s sins, they’re gone for good. If you don’t forgive sins what are you going to do with them?
John 20:23 (MSG)
I have a dog named “Teddy” and I love him dearly. However, there are times when he needs to be reprimanded. He sometimes takes his food from the kitchen and places it on the dining room carpet. He also has a habit of barking at anyone walking outside as he looks out of the dining room window.
But, no matter how many times he is scolded, he is always anxious to give me a kiss.
Do we always forgive and forget as my puppy does?
At this time of Advent, we are reminded of the Savior who was sent to us to unconditionally forgive our sins.
PRAYER: Dear God, help us to forgive one another as quickly and unconditionally as You forgave us. (Ephesians 4:32). Amen.
