A Word of Hope for Tuesday of the 3rd Week of Lent.

Today’s Gospel poses a challenging question from Peter: "Lord, how often must I forgive my brother?" Jesus' answer—not just seven times, but seventy-seven times—challenges us to look at the depth of our own hearts.

**In this video:**
*   **The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant:** Why we are scandalized by the servant who was forgiven a huge debt but refused to forgive a small one.
*   **A Mirror to Ourselves:** Are we, like the servant, unaware of how much God has already forgiven us?
*   **The Path to Mercy:** How recognizing our own need for redemption helps us extend mercy to others.

"Remember your mercies, O Lord." Today, let us remember the mercy we have received so that we may share it with our brothers and sisters.
