Hook: What has been the most difficult thing for you to forgive?

Book: As Jesus looked down from the Cross, His heart melted with compassion for those doing the unimaginable. He prayed, “Father, forgive them.” He offered forgiveness even as they acted out their sin against Him. No one is beyond His grace. While His ultimate sacrifice was being provided for the world, His grace was received by an individual. The repentant thief demonstrated how to believe by simply trusting in who Jesus is and what He did on the Cross. Jesus invites even the worst to enjoy forgiveness.
