Forgiveness

Yesterday's readings were on forgiveness. We need to forgive others. If we don't, we lose the right to be forgiven. Jesus forgave the people who wanted him dead. After all, one of last few words he said was, "Father, forgive them. They know not what they do." So we need to forgive, as we say we will in the Lord's prayer. Forgiveness and mercy is a theme in Lent. Let us live by this.
