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. Amen?
