…how often will by brother sin against me and I forgive him? As many
as 7 times? Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you 7 times, but
seventy times seven. “ ~ Matthew 18:21-22 ~
FORGIVENESS
Well, I’ve been trying, really, really hard to be really, really nice to our copier company the past couple of weeks. I believe we were handed a lemon; and today, I had to stress to them, that I am very sorry, but this was the last time I would be calling about this machine and they would need to be bringing me a new one. I expressed that I understand it is now Lent season, and forgiveness is talked a lot about here, but I’m only human.
No, forgiveness is not something we joke about, but it does seem to help when we lighten the situation up a bit when things get tough. It’s not easy to forgive. Especially if it’s over and over and over again. But the passage above tells us, not 7 times, but 70 x 7 (or in other words-over and over and over again). It isn’t always easy to forgive, but if we focus on Christ and the cross and follow His example—we can see that we have the easy way out! He did it all for us. He completed the mission and took on brutal suffering and death so that we wouldn’t have to. He forgives us repeatedly. We can call on our “service technician” up in heaven and he will never let us down. He will always rescue us from our struggles no matter how many times we ask! On the last day, we will be given a new body in Christ that won’t need any repairs!
On a lighter note—
that’s what I am hoping for here—
a new machine—
with a lot less issues!
Have a blessed weekend!
