Fuller: daily forgiveness

Meditation:
[Jesus:] “Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.”
—Matthew 6:11-12 (NIV)

Quotation:
Consider what two petitions Christ couples together in His prayer: when my body, which every day is hungry, can live without God’s giving it daily bread, then and no sooner shall I believe that my soul, which daily sinneth, can spiritually live without God’s forgiving it its trespasses.
... Thomas Fuller (1608-1661), The Cause and Cure of a Wounded Conscience [1655], “Dialogue VI” (see the book)
See also Matt. 6:11-12; Deut. 8:3; Neh. 9:20; Ps. 78:23-25; Matt. 26:27-28; John 6:27,35,48-58; Acts 2:38; 1 Cor. 10:3-4;

Quiet time reflection:
Lord, Your daily forgiveness is my food.
