FROM HIS HEART

“Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.”
Luke 23:34 KJV

If Jesus hadn’t asked God to forgive us, we would be in trouble.  Even while He was still hanging on the cross with the blood flowing down His body and the tears flowing down His heart, He proved how much He loves us when He asked His Father to forgive us.

What kind of love is this?  This is an amazing unconditional love for you and for me that can only come from the Heart of our precious Saviour.  We need to follow the example Jesus gave us and forgive from our heart.   Can we honestly say we love one another unconditionally and forgive from our heart?

We read in the Bible.  “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another” (John 13:34).  Do we love our family from our heart and do we forgive them from our heart when they hurt us?  We need to remember that we hurt them at times.

I think we sometimes forget that none of us are perfect.  There was only one perfect Person Who ever lived or ever will live and His Name is Jesus.  May God help us to follow the example Jesus gave us and love one another unconditionally and forgive each other from our heart instead of just giving lip service.
