SCRIPTURE

"And if he sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him." — Luke 17:4 (ASV)

And seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.

Do you say, "That is too many times in a day to forgive him?"

Let me ask: "How many times in a day have you sinned? How many times in a day does God forgive you?" Ah! The seven times a day that you have to forgive your brother are but a small number compared with the innumerable forgivenesses granted to you by our ever-gracious God.
