Ah-yes, highlighting an important element to the Savior's work in us, thank God!I am reading Corrie ten Boom's book 'Amazing Love' There is a chapter on forgiveness and she reminds us of
Mark 11:25
25 But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your sins, too.
she makes the point...'Why should we hold on to the sins of others while our own sins have been cast into the depths of the sea'?
Lord show us our own heart, if we hold anything against anyone, reveal it to us, in Jesus name
so true Rock'Wondering, if the lack of verbose prayer isn't a counter-strategy. But then, not fully convinced it is a bad example either.
On the one hand we 'travail' for assorted cause, needs. One the other, God sees when excess set-in,
"Sin is not ended by multiplying words, but the prudent hold their tongues."
(Proverbs 10:19)
May your Kingdom come soon.Pray like this:Our Father in heaven,
may your name be kept holy
, , Evaluate better, my brother's word,Enjoy your relationship with God above. Examine yourself within. Exalt God in every area of life
Love this,'rock'.Enthused!, , Evaluate better, my brother's word,
Entertain the stranger all-around,
Extract opportunity in commonplace,
Evoke God's will from the truth,
Expose error in the spirit of humility,
Exploit the Devil's devices towards correction,
Effect change for Christ, for good, for others,
Ensure one's own answering to Christ,
Endure God's burden - the cross, Jesus,
Errode bad habits in earnest prayer,
Euphoria of the Spirit, commune everywhere,
Equity of fervent love with all brethren,
Edify the edifice top-down.
