“I Forgive Him”

by Jerry Senn

“And whenever you stand praying, forgive, 
If you have anything against anyone,
So that your Father also who 
Is in heaven may forgive
You your trespasses.”
(Mark 11:25)


“Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,
And let not your heart be glad 
When he stumbles.”
(Proverbs 24:17)


“He who cannot forgive others
Breaks the bridge over which he must
Pass himself; for every man has need
To be forgiven.”
(Thomas Fuller)


“It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.”
(St Francis of Assisi)
