If God is willing to forgive His enemies then do
we have the right not forgive ours? Christ told us to love our enemies. Who are you angry at or hold a grudge? Let’s take a look at a man who was angry at God in Jonah 4:1-4 But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he
became angry. He prayed to the Lord, “Isn’t
this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by
fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow
to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity.
Now, Lord, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
But the Lord replied, “Is it right for you
to be angry?”
Four attributes of God that we need to follow are:
1. God is gracious and compassionate.
2. God is slow to anger.
3. God is abounding in love.
4. God relents from sending calamity.
Jesus tells us to follow His example. We have the right to question God but, He also has
the right to question us! What is He asking you to get over and move on from?
With God's strength every set-back can be a come-back!
Don’t miss giving the grace that you have received.
