READ: Romans 12:19-21
- Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
- Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
- Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
MESSAGE:
When someone takes something you can never get back or hurts your feelings, you have three options: hold on to the hurt, revenge, or forgive. I implore you to choose the last option.
Beloved, it may be difficult to forgive when someone hurts you, but it is indeed the best choice because that is the only way to access God’s mercy and goodies. On the other hand, taking revenge might make you feel better, but in the long run, it will take a toll on your emotional and spiritual health. Refusing to forgive or let go of an offence is like hurting yourself a second time because you will go about with the weight of the wrong that was done to you. This weight will make it difficult to pray and worship God freely. Thus, it is not good for you to bear.
Forgiveness does not mean that the guilty fellow would be left unpunished; it only means that you are choosing peace above pride or self and you are doing things God’s way.
KEY POINT:
Forgive those who hurt you and experience lasting peace.

Our Shelter From The Stormy Blast

Bears All Its Sons Away
They Fly Forgotten, As A Dream
Dies At The Opening Day
