"If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, "I repent," forgive him."
"Stretch out your hand!
Let no human soul wait for a benediction."
IMAGO SACRA MILLE GRATIARUM VALET. ("A holy picture is worth a thousand graces")................... This blog is a means to show some of my holy card collection along with some interesting thoughts and inspirations. "....artists have the privilege in the Church and throughout history, to open up so that people can see the mystery of God. The artist speaks, not just literally, but symbolically. Visual images, if well done, can move us. That's a ministry." Quote from Brother Michael Moran, C.P

ReplyDeleteAspiring - Sounds like a lot of "good" out there. I've always heard that you should pray for those you can't forgive. For some reason you suddenly find yourself able to forgive after all.

ReplyDeleteAspiring - How right you are. It is Christ in us who forgives for us if we only ask. I like your saying "willingness, unlike actual forgiveness, is NOT a difficult battle". I sometimes think we are the ones who make things difficult for ourselves.
