A FORGIVING WIFE OUTSHINES HER ARTIST HUSBAND



The English artist George Romney fell in love & married a young lady, but then left her so that he could pursue his career wholeheartedly; although he did support her financially.

His paintings brought him much income, but he eventually became too old to work & went back to his wife who took care of him until he passed away.

The spirit that his wife showed in caring for him was worth more than all the paintings he ever produced.

From ‘Heartwarming Bible Illustrations’ - Richard A. Steele Jr. & Evelyn Stoner (ministry127.com)

“God's mercy to us is the motivation for showing mercy to others. Remember, you will never be asked to forgive someone else more than God has forgiven you.” - Rick Warren.

Mat 6:15 (NIV): “But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.”

“I firmly believe a great many prayers are not answered because we are not willing to forgive someone.” - D.L. Moody.
