Luke 17: 3So watch yourselves! “If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance, forgive. 4Even if that person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, you must forgive.”

on the surface... it is so easy to say.. I am a forgiving person... but if we are honest.. with ourselves if no one else... and think about it.. we have a hard time with forgiveness if it is something done to us over and over again... often we have selective forgiveness.. we can forgive a certain person we love so much over and over.. but it is not so easy to do the same for the one we don't like so much... 

I recognize that we are all still a work in progress.. but can you imagine what wonderful people we will be when we finally change into the people God has called us to be...
