Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer these lines from Warren Wiersbe.

“Forgiveness is the greatest miracle that Jesus ever performs. It meets the greatest need; it costs the greatest price; and it brings the greatest blessing and the most lasting results.”

Mark 2:9-12
New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven’; or to say, ‘Get up, and pick up your pallet and walk’? ¹⁰ But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—He *said to the paralytic, ¹¹ “I say to you, get up, pick up your pallet and go home.” ¹² And he got up and immediately picked up the pallet and went out in the sight of everyone, so that they were all amazed and were glorifying God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this.”

Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You. 

Bless You, for teaching us about forgiveness and allowing us to experience this wonderful gift. Help my hard heart to be more willing and quicker to forgive. You see how easily I get offended or angered over things that should be met with compassion and forgiveness. I pray that all will realize this amazing gift of forgiveness that You have provided that leads to peace and joy. Search me, Lord, and show me any bitterness or resentment that remains in me and hinders Your light from being seen. I pray that my humility will increase and that I will find joy in considering others more important than myself. May all I do reveal Your glory, grace, and love. 

Father, we thank You that You have heard us. Amen in Jesus’ name and by the power of the Holy Spirit. 

If this blessed you or brought you peace, please share this with someone in need.
