Forgiveness Friday Scripture Reflection

Some Fridays do not need a long message. Sometimes the most meaningful thing we can do is simply sit with God's Word, let it speak for itself, and ask Him to show us what it means for our own lives. Today's verse is one of those. Read it slowly. Maybe more than once.

"Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do."

Colossians 3:13  ·  NKJV

Scripture quoted from the New King James Version (NKJV).

Lord, thank You for Your Word. Speak to me through it today. Show me what You want me to see, and help me to respond in whatever way You are leading. Amen.
