Righting a wrong

Has there been a time in your life when someone has hurt you? Taken advantage of you? Made fun of you? How often in our lives do these things happen?


For most, being wronged happens more often than we care to admit. Too often, we wear our emotions on our sleeves and just the slightest of "negative" vibes from someone else bring us to a point of despair.


We all have a desire to be liked and because of this it is sometimes hard to forgive someone who truly hurts our feelings.


Luke 17:4 says, "Even if that person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, you must forgive." Do you have someone in your life that you need to forgive to right your relationship with God and that person again?

Take time today to pray for a forgiving heart.
