Matthew 18:33

"Then his lord called him in and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me."

Key Reflection

This verse highlights the importance of forgiveness and gratitude. The lord's response underscores that true forgiveness requires not just the act but also heartfelt acknowledgment and thankfulness, as demonstrated by the servant's initial refusal to forgive his fellow servant, despite having been forgiven a great debt.
