The gift of forgiveness

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend. Proverbs 17:9

Lord Jesus bore all our sins on His sufferings and on the Cross he paid the price to gain us by unconditionaly forgiving us in God's love. He has no sin in himself that's why he was able to bear sins on his body without being getting himself corrupted in soul , blotting out the sins of our souls. Now those who believes In Jesus will be in salvation by forgiveness and grace of God . Our life are hidden in Jesus wounds.

If we got our debts freed from Jesus by our belief in him..we ought to do the same to all Jesus gives us.  When speaking to disciples after Resurrection "Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” 22 When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.” John 20-21-23

Yes to the ones who are forgiven by Lord, he breathes the Holy Spirit and gives the power to forgive sins...who by faith clings on to Jesus will be purified by Jesus to make us eligible to share in His sacrifice. If anyone hurt you or sin against you..the sins power will be deactivated if we forgive them of what they have done to us..their sin will no longer be active but ends in our forgiveness. Thus reducing the debt of the sin ,in power of Jesus who is active  in us. But if Jesus power is not active in us, that is if we are not in full faith that our sins are blotted out and freed from flesh or have not surrendered ourselves in repentance  to confess our sins we will be still clinging to our flesh and the passions of flesh will be outweighing the power of Jesus..this causes us to react in a fleshly way to the one who hurted us..this will result in transfer of sin and increased debt of both souls.. corrupting both the souls

So let us think of our actions and reactions..let us come to the grace of God's unconditional forgiveness through belief in Jesus Christ thus freeing ourselves from flesh and laws..let us be filled in God's love through holy spirit..let us experience the joy of being pardoned unconditionally and thus share this joy of forgiveness to all whom god gives us..and gain them for God in love.

 Let us listen to what He says..and follow him taking our cross that is the way of our salvation . All the crosses that the world inflict us on submitting to lord will be transformed into way of salvation.

So let's pray
Jesus increase in us each second and I decrease. As you are forgiving me and gaining me to Lord's eternal life, give me the grace to forgive all whom you give me and thus gain them to your love. Increase my faith in you and let our life grow in fullness of you. O Jesus you Come daily into us as Holy Eucharist..help us to receive you. Give us grace of repentance and surrender ourselves to your forgiving sacrament.

O my Jesus forgive us our sins as we forgive others...

God is love...love fulfills all laws.

Amen
