My full time job is not being a government employee.
My full time job is forgiving.
Matthew 18:21-35, NIV
“21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?’
22 Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”
Matthew 18:21-35, The Message
“21 At that point Peter got up the nerve to ask, ‘Master, how many times do I forgive a brother or sister who hurts me? Seven?’
22 Jesus replied, “Seven! Hardly. Try seventy times seven.’ ”
Matthew 6:14-15, The Message
“14-15 In prayer there is a connection between what God does and what you do. You can’t get forgiveness from God, for instance, without also forgiving others. If you refuse to do your part, you cut yourself off from God’s part.”
