FORGIVE, FORGIVE, AND KEEP FORGIVING


Who has done you more harm? Who did you say you will never forgive? Why did God forgive you? Why can't you forgive him/her? Are you better than the person you're accusing? Do you know that "small" sins can kill? Is hate and grudge not a sin also? Are you a prayer warrior without a forgiving heart? Are you expecting God to forgive your sins? 😱😱

My dear friend(s), let's take out time to answer some or all of the questions above and stop acting sanctimonious when we cannot even forgive others.    After Jesus had  taught His disciples to pray, He vehemently emphasized on forgiveness. Because when we stand before God, we stand before Him as sinners with our own set of failings.

If we as sinners cannot  forgive our neighbours and friends for their failings, then our  prayers does not make any sense, and that was what Jesus was saying. But when we realize that we are no better than the other person whom we are about to point our fingers at, then mercy and forgiveness have already begun to flow in us.

As for me, I have forgiven you a long time. We must live by examples for the coming generation. Today, I urge you to forgive him/her, and claim your place in heaven. The day is bright, eat and go to work. Meanwhile, I have taken a glass of chilled orange juice👍🏻.

Bonjour!
Rabbi😘
