Day 27 - Forgive us our sins as we forgive

Relationships matter to God – our relationship to him and our relationship to others. So much do our relationships matter than God gives us a fool proof pattern to follow – forgive as I have forgiven you. But can it be just that easy? We are called to turn the world upside down and fool them with our radical ways of forgiving others. Unlike the example below rather than seeking revenge with the greatest of planning and plotting we seek ways to bring back our relationship with others and with God. How our Heavenly Father longs to be in relationship with us – and how our brothers and sisters in Christ so desire to return to a whole relationship with us. Forgiven then as you yourself is forgiven – tough stuff there Jesus but may you give us the courage to live boldly this calling.
