Bread Box for July 23 2010
The research, “forgive” led me to check several 
references. “Some people brought to Jesus a man 
who was paralyzed and lying on a mat. When Jesus 
saw the faith of these people …” (ncv), I stop 
here.  Faith of these people … Jesus saw their 
faith for their friend to be healed. I believe 
that you had been praying when there was no 
Bread Box for few days. It felt like “Jesus saw 
your faith” when you prayed for me. So I thank 
you friends. Also this applies to others who have
 faith to pray for their friend to be healed. Let 
the Word of God encourages all of us. 
My testimony: For several days, the word “forgive” 
has become my research. It seems like the Holy 
Spirit was trying to show me something. July 22 
Bread Box was about “Forgive Yourself” came to 
me as a surprise. And how God does not remember 
our sins once covered with the blood of Jesus. 
It was just an awesome feeling when the scripture 
was quoted; the things that haunted me disappeared. 
I believe someone was going through this and God 
want you to know this. 
So trust God today. He loves you!
Chorus: At Calvary (by William Reed Newell)
Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found, liberty,
At Cal – va – ry….
