“…bearing with one another, and forgiving one another…”
Colossians 3:13
Billy Graham said he believes that 75 percent of patients in hospitals would be made whole if they would forgive.
An unforgiving spirit cripples us mentally, emotionally,
spiritually, and physically.
E.L. Hamilton, a brother in Christ, once rebuked a Christian worker for manifesting and unforgiving spirit towards another Christian. After a moments thought, the lady replied, “Well, I guess I will pardon her, as you suggest, but I never want to have anything more to do with her!” Hamilton said,
“Is that how you want God to treat you? Do you want Him to say that He will forgive you, but that He will never have anything more to do with you? Remember, when Christ forgave you, He cast your sins into the sea of everlasting forgiveness!
Thought for the Day:
“If you are suffering from a bad man’s injustice,
Forgive Him lest there be two bad men.”
--Augustine
