A thought for today, and a word to think deeply on – a word that we all have to deal with that’s forgiveness.
Today even a 1-year-old child understands forgiveness.
One of the little ones was upset because his mother did not let him have her phone to play games on. The child cried out, shouted loud, fell down on the floor. After the mother let the child have her phone, he hugged and kissed his mother.
Matthew 18:2 “And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them. And he said, Verily, I say unto you, except ye be converted and become as little children ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever shall humble himself as little children is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”
Romans 12:14: “Bless those who persecute you; bless and curse not... Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceit. Be not overcome of evil but overcome evil with good.” Loving and forgiving one another.
