Forgiveness depts towards debtors.

in life •  8 years ago 

Matt 6: 12 states - Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

God wants us to be concerned not only about our own spiritual welfare but also about that of others, including those who might have sinned against us. Usually, such sins are minor and give us an opportunity to show that we truly love our brothers and sisters and are willing to forgive, as God has mercifully forgiven us. Sadly, as imperfect humans, we may sometimes harbor a grudge against another. If we talk about the matter, others may side with us, causing a division in the society. If we allow such a situation to continue, it would show a lack of appreciation for God’s mercy and the ransom. Our Father will cease to apply to us the value of his Son’s sacrifice if we display an unforgiving spirit. Jesus elaborated on this immediately after giving the model prayer. Finally, to benefit from God’s forgiveness, we must strive to avoid making a practice of serious sin.

Let us focus on ths model pray my friends that Jesus has set for all of us in Matt. 6: 14, 15 - "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; whereas if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."

So let us not keep any grudges towards one another and work wholesoul with our heart that we can be blessed by our heavenly father and make him happy.

Yes God is good, but he also works in mysterious ways. Especially now a days can't really pinpoint what the big man is thinking of, or what is he expecting of us. I believe God might have ideas might have change just like how the world is changing

Never expect others to change than our ownself my dear.
