WORDS OF WONDER

* "We need not climb up into heaven to see whether our sins are    forgiven. Let us look into our hearts and see if we can forgive others.
   If we can, we need not doubt that God has forgiven us."
   Thomas Watson

* If God commands us to forgive, there must be an infinite ocean of
   forgiving love in His own heart.
