Parable of the Unforgiving Servant
Deborah-Leigh:
Hi Lin
As I read your lovely encouragement and insight of the prodigal son, my spirit took me to the memory of what happened in the heart of a very bitter Johna who was so fed up with too little shade and not enough comfort as he sat gleefully anticipating the destruction of Nineveh. God caused Johna to experience exceeding displeasure. Johna felt very angry to the point of asking God to let him die!
God makes His Home in our hearts. He purges us of all the defects of ill will, self aggrandizement, and by contrast, those inbetween the bone and marrow subconscious motives and comparisons we make, of ourselves, at the expense towards ALL those for whom Christ has died.
Blessings

~ Poor chap! God Bless Jonah for all God put him through to show us what must happen within us as The Spirit of Christ cleans His Temple within us!

Thank you Arc. So true, poor Jonah! (and poor us as we learn these lessons! ;))
Love is a spectacular gift from us to one another lostANDfound! Thank you for sharing yours.
In the words of one of my favorite lyrists...
"All you need is love..." ;D
