His Day

Sunday... This morning at church the main subject was forgiveness taken from Matthew 18: 22.
This is the passage where Peter asks Jesus how often that he should forgive his brothers? Peter suggested 7 times and thought that would be enough. Jesus in turn tells him to forgive 70 x 7. 490 times...is that enough?
Forgiveness makes us look like our Father. When we forgive we look like Jesus.
"A forgiven person is a forgiving person."
We are FORGIVEN by the Blood of the Lamb...nothing else could be greater! We are given a gift from the Father that is priceless, now in turn we should give it to others.
*******************************************************************************
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
