Mathew 18:21-35 – The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant (Forgiveness)

You gotta love Peter’s confidence here. How many times, Lord, should I forgive these people?   [Go ahead and open your bibles, read the passage.  Do it.]

The parable culminates with Jesus’ description of how our Father in Heaven will treat us if we continue the path of un-forgiveness. Did you catch it in verse 34?  Jesus equates un-forgiveness with jail.  That’s exactly what un-forgiveness will do to you.  You will be locked away behind anger, resentment, jealousy, pride, and selfishness.  Ironically, the offending party goes free.  The best part of this is…   You have the key to the prison.  It’s not easy, but it’s the only way out.  Start small, ask God for help.  As you kneel, ask God to forgive you for your offenses.   Lord, thank You that each day we have from You is a gift, another chance for a fresh start. Forgive us, Lord.  Help us to forgive, and to let go of the past.  Please help us to see Your strength through our weaknesses today, and then again tomorrow, and every day after.  I Jesus’ Name, amen.

Also, remember Jesus’ answer to Peter’s question.  “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”

MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
And Peter: From the Resurrection service at church, pastor spoke from Mark 16: 1-7.  The angel meets the women in the empty tomb and instructs them to tell the disciples AND PETER.  Only 3 days before, Peter had denied Jesus 3x just like Jesus had told him he would.  Peter was named specifically to show that he was forgiven.  If Jesus forgave Peter for his public denial, there’s nothing, outside of refusing to accept him, that he won’t forgive us for if we just ask and look to Him.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Being authentic. Too many times we put on a persona of what we think people want to see. We act differently around our family, friends, church and co-workers to meet expectations. Social media has elevated this to an unhealthy level where we only post the most perfect moments in our lives and compare ourselves in all of our imperfections to other’s most perfect moments. We need to strive to be authentic in all aspects of our lives and stop comparing ourselves to these micro snapshots from others.
