As the year closes up and we take time to think about our triumphs and defeats. I personally believe that we should rid ourselves of unforgivingness. In fact God has given us a word on how we should forgive…
Matthew 5:43-48 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
That seems impossible to do, right? But He goes further… Matthew 6:14-15 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
We are left with a major decision. Plus it is common knowledge now that when you retain all the garbage of the world we end up sick. God knew this way before scientist did…
Proverbs 17:22 A cheerful heart is good medicine,but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
Prayer for today… Lord help me to have your heart of forgivingness
