A Cardboard Box

A church without forgiveness
is like a cardboard box;

very handy and useful,
able to contain a variety of things,
lightweight and versatile,
yet durable and resilient…

…until it gets wet.

“In Him we have redemption through His blood,
the forgiveness of our trespasses,
according to the riches of His grace which He lavished on us.”
~Ephesians 1:7,8


“So, as those who have been chosen of God,
holy and beloved,
put on a heart of compassion, kindness,
humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another
and forgiving each other,
 whoever has a complaint against anyone;
just as the Lord forgave you,
so also should you.”
~Colossians 3:12,13
