Philemon & Psalm 84

I spent 10 mintues reading these two passages.
Paul's letter to Philemon is very important for us today. The overall message, that I see, is to forgive our fellow Christian; completely and freely. Paul recognized that Philemon had every legal right to punish Onesimus, but since the slave was now a Christian Paul urged his owner to forgive him the crime completely. The cross paid for every sin.
Psalm 84 reminds us that being in God's presence is of greater worth than anything else in all of creation.
