And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.” Mark 11:25
Our culture has attempted to individualize everything from dinners we buy to education (online school is available at all levels). Faith will always be a community exercise. Jesus said that if there are issues you have against “anyone” you need to restore that relationship through forgiveness (here it is to offer it) before you worship. Community is that important. We are in this together. Don’t let your faith suffer because of your refusal to embrace a brother or sister in Christ – or anyone. As God has freely forgiven you, freely forgive.
