Jesus said, “But if you don’t forgive people, your Father will not forgive your wrongdoing (Mt 6:15).” If we forgive others only so that God will forgive us, then we are forgiving selfishly and not selflessly.

“I AM,” born to die, then rise, from death’s tomb. To Bethlehem, in Mary’s virgin womb. Birthed in stable, in home and hearts, no room. Angels shout, “Peace on Earth,” voices abloom. “Glory to God;” divine night knows no gloom. Shepherds, sheep they leave, later to resume. Gold, frankincense, myrrh, birth’s and death’s perfume. Magi […]
