Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

This is not talking about money debts owed here but rather the debt we owe to God because of our sins – this is why some bibles use the word sins rather than the word debts.

The type of things we fall short of all the time are love, obedience and gratitude.

If we fall short of these things toward God, then should we not expect to see these shortcomings from the people around us?

We need the grace extend forgiveness to others just as we expect God to extend His grace and forgive us!
