I have been talking about how God changes lives. Well, one of the changes I have been able to witness in Mark's (a new Christian's) life is that he's told me of three people that he has had problems with in the past that he has been able to communicate with and make headway with a better relationship. You can make mistakes without any practice at all, but you cannot teach until you have learned, you cannot love until you have been loved, and you cannot forgive until you have been forgiven. We cannot give what we do not have. We are taught that we should forgive as we have been forgiven. God's forgiveness has benefited us in more ways than one. Not only are we forgiven, we now have the ability to forgive, which is a great blessing to us. God's blessings toward us are manifold! Have yourselves a good Sunday mornin', and a great rest of the week.
