Paradise


Why is it in life that we feel that we are undeserving of the love of our family, spouse, friends, and yes even God? Perhaps it is because in life we have all been through situations in relationships where someone has hurt us, or we have been on the giving end of the hurt and our soul seems irreversibly wounded.

We all find it hard to forgive at some time or another. Learning to forgive can be a long and difficult road. One of the most powerful scenes of forgiveness is played out at Gethsemane. Two criminals crucified with Jesus, one blasphemes Jesus saying, save yourself and us. The other, acknowledges his sin and pleads with Jesus to remember him. Jesus does.

If Jesus could show love and forgiveness to this man who was left with no time to change his sinful ways, we must know that our sin and those who sin against us is also forgiven.

You are more loved by God than you could ever imagine.
