"Being There for Others"
Do you remember when Peter asked JESUS how many times does a person have to forgive another, and JESUS answer to him was seventy times seven? In effect, what He was saying is this, there are no limits placed on how much to forgive someone, yet people tend to place limits on their forgiveness all of the time. Does anyone ever take time to think about what if I was like mankind, being unwilling to forgive someone who has sinned over and over again? There are also those in this world who tend to expect a lot of and/or from you at times, and it can sometimes be so irritating and frustrating to you. Do not think that I cannot understand because I can, but I also know you do have the power to get beyond such feelings of frustration because of The Holy Spirit within you.
Now listen to Me, My children, there will always be someone somewhere that will need to be forgiven, and oftentimes forgiven by you. When and/or if that is the case, always be mindful of these following words from The Lord's Prayer; "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us". There will also be those times when certain people will not only need forgiveness, but they will also want you to do something for them as well. There are indeed times when someone might want you to walk a mile with them for instance, but then go ahead and walk two miles with them. Try to make it a habit to always do more than what someone has asked of you. Be mindful of the fact that whatever you do for people, look at it as if you are doing it for JESUS CHRIST and Me, because in effect that is the truth, because what you do for the least among you, you do unto Us. Now may good things come to you who will do as I say, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.
AMEN
