Forgiveness is a two-way street

Morning: Psalms 93, 96; Judges 6:1-24; 2 Corinthians 9:6-15

Evening: Psalm 34; Mark 3:20-30

Jesus says that those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit cannot find forgiveness. It is not that God is particularly upset about one particular kind of sin, nor that anything is unforgiveable for God. It’s that if you are in rough waters and choose to reject the lifebelt that someone throws because you mistakenly think they are trying to drown you, you will most surely drown. You cannot receive help from God if you think God wishes you harm. You cannot find forgiveness if you do not trust the one who desires to forgive you. Forgiveness is a two-way street.
