Fasting and Praying 37/40

Day Thirty-Seven: “Lord Jesus, you not only taught about forgiveness, you also demonstrated by your own willingness to forgive.” Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I recognized your willingness to forgive me—when you forgave the parlayzed man lowered on a stretcher through the roof (Matthew 9:2-8). “The woman caught in adultery (John 8:3-11).” The women; who anointed your feet with oil (Luke 7:47-50).
