There is a company in Florence, South Carolina, that has been making bricks for 125 years. Even now with $8 million dollars of processing equipment, they still cannot improve on the efficiency percentage of when they first established the company. Only 60% of the finished product can be sent to market; the other bricks have enough imperfections that they must be ground up and recycled. The process of making a brick is not that difficult and even with the improvements in technology the process has changed very little; yet, even with technological advances, only 60% of the completed product is eligible for sale, the same as in 1885. This is why the company's motto is: "It's Simple. It's Just Not Easy." The process of making a brick is easy; it's just not that simple.
Jesus instructed that we forgive "77 times." It means our attitude toward forgiving another person is virtually unlimited; yet, how hard it is for us to forgive someone just once, the first time, much less the 77th time. About forgiveness, one could say, "It's Simple. It's Just Not Easy."
