Daily CLC Prayer verse

“Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt. So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.””‭‭Matthew‬ ‭18:32-35‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This sticks out because he ends with “from your heart”. I know this is talking about forgiving others. I also assume everyone knows the adage that if we don’t forgive another, it’s like taking poison and hoping the other person dies. I wonder if He also means to forgive ourselves here. We may forgive other people’s mistakes, but then hold ourselves to a impossible line that hurts us. Please pray that we and our friends repent and also forgive from the heart. Please pray for Ryan and Chris’s group.
