Sometimes, people can be very mean and cruel. Sometimes people can be unfair, unkind, and unappreciative. Sometimes people get angry and frustrated. So what is the Crhistian to do? We talked some about this in our class Wednesday night. How hard it is sometimes to forgive people who wrong us. But God's answer is straightforward: Forgive, and move on. Luke 6:37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven".
What ever anyone else has done to us, we have done the same thing to God, but he fogives us, so in turn we must forgive those who wrong us. The best thing we can do is do what Matthew 5: 44 tells us: "But I tell you love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you."
So I challenge us all today, think of someone who has persecuted you, STOP right now and pray for them, and forgive them today. You will see how much more blessed you will be because of it.
