“And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.”
— Matthew 6:12 NASB1995
💔 Forgiven and Forgiving
Jesus teaches us that receiving forgiveness and offering it go hand in hand. We come daily, humbly, asking God to cancel our debt—and He reminds us to release others from theirs.
Unforgiveness clogs the flow of grace. A Kingdom heart receives mercy freely and gives it just as freely.
🔗 Ante-Nicene Reflection
The early Church emphasized confession and reconciliation. Believers regularly examined their hearts before prayer and communion, eager to remain in right standing with God and others.
💭 Reflect
- Is there someone I need to forgive?
- Do I seek God’s mercy with the same measure I extend it?
✨ Prayer
Father, thank You for Your mercy. Forgive me where I’ve failed You, and help me forgive those who’ve wronged me. Keep my heart free and clean. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
