LIVE IT OUT
“Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.”- Colossians 3:13 NLT
How is it that we want to be forgiven for all the wrongs we do or have done but we aren’t so willing to forgive others when the wrong has been done to us? What unrealistic expectations we have or how one sided they are. Instead of forgiving others, we’d rather hold grudges. This leads to resentment and bitterness because our focus is on poor us and the injustice of it all. Instead, we should remember we all make mistakes, some times on purpose, some times without realizing what we did but the point is we all do. Remember how it feels and how much better it would be if we would forgive and move on.
MAKE IT REAL – How better can we show a lost world God’s grace and forgiveness? Not just in telling them about what Jesus did for us on the cross but when they see it being lived out in our own lives, it can’t be denied.
