~ the way children hear it ~

"And forgive us our trash baskets

as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."

 

The pastor at the church we often attend is doing a series on The Lord's Prayer.
There have been lots of lessons, big and small,

 . . . like the child's version of this prayer . . .
The "trash basket" quote actually holds quite a lesson for me!
Hanging on to "trash," my own or others, is not a good thing.

This requires a decision.

... for help with the messy parts of life...

... so that something beautiful can come from it ... Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.  ~Mark Twain Remembering the One who taught us divine forgiveness. Wishing you love, tenderness and peace of heart, mind and soul. ♥ Love,          Maria
