While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him. But he replied to the man who told him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” (Matthew 12 : 46-50)

YOU ARE JESUS’ BROTHER OR SISTER
While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him. But he replied to the man who told him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” (Matthew 12 : 46-50)

WHAT DOES FORGIVENESS FEEL LIKE?
What emotions accompany forgiveness?
“Because you belong to Him [Christ Jesus], the
power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads
to death.” Romans 8:2
Forgiveness is freeing. Through Jesus Christ, you have freedom from the
power of sin and death in your life! This feeling of freedom can also be felt
when you forgive others.

FORGIVE OTHERS AS GOD HAS FORGIVEN YOU
Scripture: “A man
loaned money to two people—500 pieces of silver to one and 50 pieces to the
other. But neither of them could repay him, so he kindly forgave them both,
canceling their debts. Who do you suppose loved him more after that?” Luke
7:41-42 (NLT)
Once
Jesus shared a meal with a very judgmental person. He used this story to show
that a person who understands their debt and receives forgiveness will have
great love for the one who forgives. Being judgmental and unforgiving shows
that you have little regard for God’s forgiveness.
