St Clare

Ezekiel 12: 1-12; Psalm 78: 56-62;

Matthew 18: 21-19:1
Forgiveness

How interesting that the Lord uses the imagery of the forgiveness of debts when speaking about the forgiveness of offences and sins. Debts can trouble people for years but can be forgiven so quickly. It is the same with offences and sins. They can trouble us for years or we can give and receive forgiveness in no time at all. Do we want to be forgiven? Do we want to forgive?
