Matthew 18:21—19:1:
Jesus’ response to Peter’s question is that forgiveness cannot be quantified. No person has the right to limit the number of times they offer forgiveness. The parable Jesus tells brings the petition from the Lord’s Prayer to mind. To receive God’s mercy, one must be willing to extend mercy to others.
Be with me today as I search the corners of my mind and heart for the anger I hold on to toward those who have “trespassed against me.”
