Forgive Us Our Debts

This is the first Post of hopefully many more that this Blog-Web action page will see listed.

Forgive Us Our Debts.

In today's world we see this time and time again. I can't pay my credit card bill, I just hope someone would forgive me my debts, so I can go on spending, or just get out of debt since I have learned my lession the hard way. I don't know how many of you reading this have credit cards, but who this site was set up to speak about, they usually don't have credit cards, but they have debts, just like everyone else.

Our bills get larger everytime we go out to buy things. Food being something that most of us have to get most of the time at least by buying it, we see the price going up and up these days. Some places in this City you can find Food handed out for free, be it bags of groceries for a few days, or stew in a pot/bowl for you to eat on the spot. Free food something everyone I know even those that can afford to go to "Fancy" resturants will not shy away from taking. You might not see them at the places I am talking about giving away free food up above, but you will see them at the markets, the Wholesale clubs where foods are given away free just because you are able to afford a card or have a way to get to the place that the food is given away as samples. They even have names for these people they call them the Sample Hounds. They know when the Market or Wholesale club is going to be giving out the free stuff and they are there to take it. The first example is where the Homeless find there free foods, and be sure they all know where to get it, or at least how to ask another for where the free stuff is, just like everyone that wants to get free food from both examples.

My credit card bill came in today, I only have one. It is to a jewelery store, I got it when I did not think I would get it, used it when I thought it would be cool, Knowing I could not pay off the debt I was making, but doing it anyway, and in the end that debt that I now have won't be forgiven like I knew it would not, I will go into debt, and still have to pay for it. In this case for only me personally this debt means the world to me because of the results that happened in connection with it. But most debts with our credit cards don't result in something that can literally change someone's whole outlook on life. I don't want to be forgiven of my debt to this store, I need it as a reminder.

Forgive Us Our Debts we pray at times, if you have ever prayed the Lord's Prayer some versions of it say those exact words. As we forgive our debtors, is the next little line, all part of the whole tapestry of the Prayer.

If you know to pray that prayer You know that you'll get your Debts forgiven, Your sins washed clean, you'll be a bright shiny new person, able to spend like you want to again. Nothing stands in your way.

Spending like there is no tomorrow is how you know some people use their credit cards. How do you spend your clean slate that God just gave you when you Prayed the Lord's Prayer?
