1 Samuel 8:4-7, 10-22; Ps 89, Mark 2:1-12

To love is to forgive

Jesus’s commandment that we love one another is probably best shown when he forgives us. Through His forgiveness we can start our lives afresh, hopeful that we may be better able to withstand the sins that paralyse us from doing God’s will. Who do I need to forgive? How can I show love for others today?
