t’s a beautiful Easter Sunday morning here in Mississippi, USA. I woke up this morning and began my morning routine. One of the things that I do each morning is to go through my Emails. Usually there are several from my readers, most of which are very nice and respectable.
One in particular message was by some guy who called himself John. It was laced with nasty language, and your typical ignorant insults usually only used by those who have major issues in their own rights. As I read it, I just laughed and immediately thanked God for my blessings in life.
I forgive you John, and I forgive any other person who has done me wrong. I pray that those I have done wrong in my past forgive me as well. More importantly, I pray that God has forgiven me.
Easter is a special day. For Christians and others who believe in Christ, it’s one of the biggest days of the year. Churches across the world conduct Easter sunrise service, afternoon service, and evening service. Millions enjoy their church service, and typically eat a big Easter dinner afterward. That’s usually followed up by a power nap, and some sort of sports on the television. Advertisement
As most boxing fans know, Manny Pacquiao is a big believer in God, he takes his faith very serious. Truth be known, I am not sure if Floyd is a God fearing man or not. I have never really seen or heard him talk much about his faith. If Floyd does in fact believe in God, he is not exempt from forgiveness if he asks God for it.
Both Manny and Floyd have done things (just like most of us in the world) that they wish they could take back. Both men have been attacked by various groups at various times over the years and both have reacted to those attacks in their own way.
Floyd has said and done things that are not God like. Manny has also done things in his life that are not God like. With that said, I am pretty sure that Manny asks his Lord and Savior for forgiveness all of the time. Most Christians and followers of Christ do.
Easter is a good day to not only remember what Christ went through, but to remember that nobody is perfect and that we should all be more forgiving of each other.
