Forgiveness, as hard as it might be, strongly pervades this morning's message in both readings: Ezekiel 18:21-29 and Matthew 5:20-26. One has to take a deep breath to find the gumption to apologize, and then, sometimes bear the criticism of others, for being "too soft." Better to forgive, for we all stand in need of it, and then be free to bring our gift to the altar.
