Philemon 1:1-25 GOD’s love and forgiveness received and enjoyed has a ripple effect! Paul received God’s grace and mercy, shared it to the runaway slave- Onesimus, by which he was saved and now he asks Onesimus’ master, Philemon to reciprocate the same to his servant!

That’s the touching message of a very personal letter by Paul to Philemon. Onesimus whose name meant “useful” had been nothing less than “useless” to Philemon when he had done him wrong and run away to Rome. But God’s mercy had pursed this man who came in touch with Paul who had led him to the Lord.

What “good things” come from faith that Paul, Onesimus, Philemon and each of us believers-have experienced in Christ that we are called to put into action? Philemon was called to forgive and accept Onesimus because of the mercy, forgiveness, love and acceptance he had received from the LORD! Finding it hard to forgive?

Nothing earned you God’s love and forgiveness…it’s for giving!If you are a runaway from God… run back to God’s love and mercy which is available just the same way it was when Onesimus returned!
