I came up with an idea that whenever you have a bad thought, you should imagine Jesus entering into the scene you're imaginging. I tried it, but I was shocked by what my mind seemed to produce automatically. Jesus entered the scene in my mind, but He wasn't just hanging out. He was hanging on the cross, and He spoke. He said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."
I've never heard a preacher say this, but this seemingly automatic way that Christ entered my mind made me think that maybe He wasn't just talking about those who were executing Him as much when He said that as He was talking about every person who's ever sinned or ever will sin in thought or in action. That is what really killed Him after all...
