Being forgiven makes it possible to love

Morning: Psalms 146, 147; Jeremiah 36:1-10; Acts 14:8-18
Most of us need to find forgiveness for something.  When you are un-forgiven, the love in you shrinks.  When you find forgiveness, love expands within you and overflows to others.  Refusing to forgive someone is acting out your own need for forgiveness and love.  But when you forgive someone, you break open your own heart to love; you offer them (and yourself) a new world of possibilities.  Forgiveness multiplies love.  Love multiplies forgiveness.  You don’t have to be God to forgive someone.  Amazingly, though, when someone forgives you, it’s as if God has forgiven you too.
