Summary
Today we continue our weeklong focus on forgiveness, by looking at the incredible gift of forgiveness we’ve been offered in Jesus. Every command God has given us, he has already supplied the grace to live in obedience to. Forgiveness is no different. May we find the grace to forgive as we rest in the forgiveness we’ve already been offered through our Savior.
Our Scripture for today comes from Ephesians 4:32, and today's worship is Your Mercy by Austin Stone Worship.
