4th Friday of Lent

A Heart Without Resentment

“Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” — Matthew 5:44

Karl never allowed suffering to become bitterness. Those who had opposed him remained in his prayers. Resentment binds us to the past. Forgiveness opens the future. His freedom came from mercy — the same mercy offered to us.

Blessed Karl, give us hearts that forgive. Amen.
