Forgive From the Heart

Matthew 18:35 KJV
So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

Forgive from the heart. Trespasses can begin to mount up. The weight of burden from trespasses compounding over time and from a multitude of sources becomes the bars of its own debtors' prison. If trespasses are not forgiven, if offenses are not quickly put away from the heart (as opposed to merely offering forgiveness as lip service) then the pit of the prison is dug by the prisoner's own hateful hands. 

  • Forgive quickly
  • Forgive completely 
  • Forgive from the heart
