“Welcome back to ‘2 Minutes with the Lord,’ where we seek wisdom and guidance through the parables of Jesus. I’m Fr. Dominic Veigas SVD, and today, we’re delving into The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant. This parable offers a profound perspective on forgiveness and mercy, two pillars that should uphold our everyday interactions. Let’s explore what Jesus teaches about the cycle of forgiveness and its impact on our lives.” “In the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 18, Jesus tells a story about a king who decides to settle accounts with his servants. One servant owes him ten thousand talents—an impossibly large sum. Unable to pay, the servant begs for mercy, and the king compassionately forgives the debt. However, this servant encounters a fellow servant who owes him much less. Instead of extending the same forgiveness he received, he demands payment and has the man imprisoned. When the king learns of this, he’s outraged and reverses his mercy, punishing the unforgiving servant for his lack of compassion.”
