—Matthew 6:9-15

Forgiveness is a very important aspect of the Christian life. Here in this passage we are told twice that we need to forgive others so that our Heavenly father can forgive us (verse 12, 14). There are many times when we find it hard to forgive others for the smallest thing but that unforgiveness can hurt our relationship with God and cause us to lose out on His unconditional forgiveness. Maybe if we begin to realize just how much God forgave us of then it will be easier for us to forgive others.
