I believe this subject is probably more vital today than ever. Peter asked of the Lord Jesus, how many times should he forgive his brother is he sinned against him. Up to seven times was the question? And the Lord answered accordingly. "Seventy times seven." Matthew 18:21-22 That would be 144 times in doing the math. Perhaps that's how many times it may take certain individuals to get it down into their hearts and minds. Sounds sensible if we do struggle with this issue. I personally have as well. I can become easily angered, but have learned to quickly forgive. Lest a root of bitterness develops as a result. Bitterness can literally end up destroying one's life. Hebrews 12:15 Here's a song that beautifully illustrates this.

Hebrews 12:14-15 KJV 14Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the LORD: 15Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you and thereby many be defiled; Ephesians 4:31-32 KJV 31Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Okay, so we've changed servers due to continual bombardment on the other one we were on. Hackers were hammering the site, so a necessary change was in order. I do understand that. But, here's an immediate problem when engaging the new one. The horrendous lag has been eliminated. and that's a good thing. All the emoticons I downloaded from several of our members here are not displaying at all. Worthy's are no problem, but they never were. And I'm not a chronic emoji user in particular. Well, maybe a little. I do use them always in the Worthy Welcome portion though. They're very effective, and Worthy just doesn't have them. This presents a major problem for me. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks.
