Once again it's time for a blog swap with Michelle Lesley! I enjoy her direct 'give it to me straight' kind of writing.
Today she shares the importance of of extending grace and forgiveness to one another, not just to relieve the offender, but because Proverbs 19:11 says "Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is to his glory to overlook an offense."
As the holiday's proceed let's use 'good sense' and remember to extend an extra measure of grace to others. We all fail at times, we all do reckless things, we all hurt...let's get our minds off ourselves and our focus out of our little worlds. Let's make an extra effort become the one spreading peace and love in the next few weeks.
Who knows! It just might become us!
Here is an excerpt:
What’s down right unfathomable in this day and age of everybody wearing his feelings on his sleeve, and wanting to absolutely obliterate anyone who causes him the least amount of agitation, is for one human to pass over the failure of another.
