Forgiveness

There has been a lot of discussion lately about Josh Duggar and the past molesting of his sisters.  Now I know that many people have their own ideas about Josh Duggar, and what should happen to him.  I also know that he was a minor, and not a Christian at the time.  He asked forgiveness from God,  his sisters,  and his parents.  I know what He did was wrong, but he made it right by the people that he needed to.  If his sisters,  his parents,  and his God can forgive him... why does the American public feel like they can withhold forgiveness?  This is what can happen to a teen that doesn't have Christ in their lives.  If God can forgive us for all our sins, then who are we to not forgive someone who's a sinner just like us?  For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23  That is why God sent His Son to save us. 

Colossians 3:13- Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

Ephesians 4:32- And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

I'm so thankful for the forgiveness we have in Christ,  aren't you?

Walking In Grace,
