Today's verses:
"If you forgive those who sin against you, your Heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins."
Matthew 6:14-15
We are called to follow Christ's example: forgiveness - good for the soul (and the body).
"Blessed is the man whose wife is his best friend - especially if she likes to HUNT!"
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these."

Many think that when you forgive, the sinner is off the hook. He's not. The forgiving is to get YOU off the hook. Forgive and forget. It takes your mind off of revenge and back to the Lord. As for the sinner, he's still answerable for his own sins. He needs Jesus to relieve him of that.
“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
― George Orwell
It's not over when you lose. It's over when you quit.
