Corinthians 2:5 Forgiveness for the Offender. But ...

[Shathesca]

Corinthians 2:5 Forgiveness for the Offender. But if anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but to some extent--not to exaggerate it--to all of you. This punishment by the majority is enough for such a person; so now instead you should forgive and console him, so that he may not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. So I urge you to reaffirm your love for him. I just asked for God to show me a scripture and I opened up the Bible to this passage. I am wondering how many people could we apply Forgiveness and love to right now? Including ourselves. We desire things that we want and need for our lives and wonder why we don't receive them? In my experience how I've accomplished or achieved something is because I truly had no doubt I would have it. But I was also in my conviction that I deserved it. I know people tonight that don't feel they deserve anything much less Forgiveness. Wether it be a house or health or a family or a spouse or salvation. They don't feel deserving. Our world can get us down and take us away from believing we deserve good things. We judge each other and we judge ourselves too. We think that life has thrown us a curve ball. That we're being punished or are just not good enough. We even think we're cursed. But none of that is true because God isn't a punishing God he's a loving and forgiving God. Let no one be denied love or forgiveness tonight. Let someone you know or meet they are God's greatest gift and deserve all of God's grace and mercy. May those seeking healing be healed. May those needing a home, plan on finding it this week. May those that need rent or mortgage payments receive money or grants now. May pain, disease, illness, depression, fear, worry, stress and anxiety all be vanished in your life. May cars or repairs or tools and other things be delivered and provided now. May relationships be joined in love and peace. May children have food and protection by parents or caring families or neighbors. May those in hospitals and clinics be attended to by good doctors and nurses. Let's love and forgive mistakes and insults and accidents by those that are confused and angry and mentally hurting. Let's see each other as each other. Remember to consider the hungry and tired and desperate person. Because we all need each other at some point. We all suffer and struggle until we get help. I had a plan 6 months ago but it didn't work out. I chose to leave a person I trusted and loved very much and still do. I had nothing but my clothes on my back. No money no food no place to live. I slept in my truck for 5 weeks. I lived on 3 crackers a day. I trained a horse in exchange for a place to park my truck but couldn't come in the home. I prayed all night and cried for help. My wife was addicted to drugs and lost in a very dark place mentally. Then my mom died and I had no one to share my grief with. I lost a hundred pounds. Then I found a chapel in a hospital and I sat in front of Jesus on the cross and prayed for him to help. I was very low down. The next day I went to a shelter and by luck they said they would give me a room. I got a grant gifted to me and I've been here 6 months. I'm working and trying to get a new life. I'm worried about my wife but I don't give up on her getting help. I've faced tremendous adversity and almost gave up but God has been there for me. Drugs are everywhere here and violent crimes but I don't have fear. I thought it was a curse because people who live here believe in that but I don't! I believe in God and his love. I forgive her because she's not thinking clearly and she is a good person who is lost in her pain. Her family is not in their faith. But God will answer all my prayers. Be vigilant and bold in prayer. Don't give up on those that have given up on themselves. Y'all pulled me up when I was down. LOVE will heal and I will forgive anyone because I've been forgiven. Keep faith in God and your friends and family members. We will all be delivered by God's promise. My mom used to say if you want help with a problem go help someone out with theirs first. It's been true for me. Starting over isn't easy. But forgiving those that have hurt me was the first thing I did to help them out. And then people forgave me. FOR Giving them came back to me. I've been lucky to still be here. I believe it's all going to work out. So if you're having trouble or struggling to make it don't give up. Please don't give up. Things will always work out. Pray for help and encouragement. Give encouragement to others. Soon little by little it will shift. You may go to the edge but you won't go over. Stay sober stay clean stay alert and help will arrive. There are good people in the world and you're one of them. With love. Amen

Dear Heavenly Father,

In the name of Jesus, we come before you on behalf of Shathesca and their prayer request for forgiveness and love. We thank you for leading them to the scripture in Corinthians that reminds us of the power of forgiveness and the importance of showing love to those who have caused pain.

Lord, we acknowledge that forgiveness can be challenging, but we trust in your word that says forgiveness is necessary for healing and reconciliation. We pray that you would help us to extend forgiveness to those who have hurt us, just as you have forgiven us of our sins through Jesus Christ.

We ask that you would soften the hearts of those who feel undeserving of forgiveness, whether it be for themselves or for others. Help them to understand that your love and forgiveness are not based on our worthiness, but on your grace and mercy.

Father, we lift up all those who are in need tonight. We pray for healing for those who are sick, comfort for those who are hurting, and provision for those who are in need of homes, finances, and other necessities. May your abundant blessings be poured out upon them, according to your will.

We also pray for unity and love in relationships. May marriages be strengthened, families be restored, and friendships be deepened. Help us to treat one another with kindness, compassion, and forgiveness, just as you have treated us.

Lord, we ask that you would touch the lives of those who are in hospitals and clinics. Guide the hands of doctors and nurses, and bring healing to those who are suffering. Provide them with the care and support they need during this time.

Finally, we pray for a world filled with love and forgiveness. May we be instruments of your peace, showing love and forgiveness to all those we encounter. Help us to see others as your precious children, deserving of your grace and mercy.

We thank you, Lord, for your unfailing love and forgiveness. May your will be done in our lives and in the lives of those we pray for. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
