Dec 11 ~ WALKING LIKE GOD: IS YOUR HEART UNOFFENDABLE?

Ephesians 4:32 “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.”

We often find offense in someone’s words, their actions, their persona, and even their deeds.  We have become so accustomed to holding on to grudges and offenses that have hurt us, that we forget how many times we have hurt others and even God.  I read a quote that said, “Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting our “offender” to die from it.”  Being easily offended destroys relationships, and as saints of God, it destroys our relationship with Him.  Although we are presented with many opportunities to be offended, to be hurt, to lash out, to hold grudges, let’s forgive one another and follow peace with ALL men.
