Forgive Us, Lord, As We Forgive Others!?!

Everybody Loves The Lord's Prayer

And 

Blithely Repeat It 

Without Pausing To Think About The Words 

"Forgive Us ... As We Forgive ...!" 

We Love To Talk About 

"Do Fuh Do!" 

When We Are The Doer 

And 

Foolishly Forget That 

We Are In Debt To Almighty God

Because 

We Have Trespassed 

Aka Gone Where We Should Not 

Aka Committed Sin Against His Holiness! 

We, All, Are Treading On Dangerous Ground 

When We Pray For Forgiveness 

And

Walk Around Holding Grudges Against People

- Be They Friends, Family Or Foes - 

While Daringly Saying: 

"I Will Never Forgive Them!" 

Beloved, 

Are You The True And Living Holy God Of Grace And Mercy!?! 

Do You Hold Life And Eternity In Your Hand!?! 

If Your Answer Is 

"No!" 

I Beseech Us All To Back-Back To Go Forward! 

The Lord Jesus Christ

Immediately After Teaching His Disciples 

How To Pray 

Then Warned Them Graphically 

About The Content Of Their Prayers 

And 

Their Attitude! 

To Err Is Human: 

To Forgive Is Divine! 

We Who Desire The Lord's Forgiveness 

For Our Sins Against Him 

Must First

Forgive Those 

"Who Done Did Us Wrong!" 

Let Us, Therefore

Be Obedient So That 

We Shall Be Blessed Of Our God! 

By Faith

In Truth

For The Love Of God

Dare To Extend Your Hand In Fellowship

Even If It Figuratively Gets Chopped Off! 

The Lord Of Earth And Glory 

Reads Hearts 

And

He Promises New Life And New Bodies! 

Do Right! 

Eternal Blessings Await The Obedient Enduring Faithful!

Peace

Is

Like The River Glorious!
