Thank you Father for another deep and enlightening reflection. I have heard many people say they’re not yet ready to forgive…they need time. I pray for you Ogbu and Skip and all who are not yet ready to forgive. We all need to pray more for God’s grace as it is only through Him that we can really experience the forgiveness and healing that we all need and free us from any bondage of sin and unforgiveness. God bless us all!

Thank you so much Father for taking your time to enlighten us all in the scriptures. Breaking down Forgiveness as you have done brings the issue deeper into my heart and understanding. We all need your reflections on
These readings to bring us true wisdom from you and the Holy Spirit.
Prayers and Peace to you

Fr. Lawrence, thank you.
I ask the same as Ogbu. Pray for me.
I have forgiven and forgot offenses in the past but it took years. Now I have different issues that eat at me. I pray I don’t run out of time to forgive.
Lord have mercy.

Although we have all heard how we must forgive, you shine new light for us all to consider your message, above, “when forgiveness becomes impossible.” A perspective we would all do well to consider we’ll.
Thank you for this enlightenment, Father Lawrence.

Thank you Father. Again you depth of knowledge and understanding of the teachings of Jesus is off the charts. True and complete forgiveness is difficult to achieve. Only with Gods grace and mercy can we begin to heal and forgive…77 times. Brilliant stuff Father L!

Terrific comments on a terrifying topic – thank you, Lawrence, very powerful…..and let’s not forget, “charity begins at home” so let’s start by forgiving members of our own families….
