We are struggling right now with friends in need who are dealing with pot-stirrers and mischief makers. The enemy is working overtime to bring about dissension. The next verse I am trying to memorize and live out comes from Proverbs 10:12...
Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs.
(emphasis mine)
If Christ loved us enough to die for us, we need to love our fellow man. If God can forgive us for the multitude of wrongs we have done toward Him and our fellow man, surely we need to learn to forgive as well. When Christ was asked about forgiveness He said seven x seventy times. Our flesh doesn't want to, but perhaps that's part of the maturation process. When we walk in Christ all things are new, new meaning we don't always understand, but we should strive for obedience even when our own minds don't understand.
