If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it;
if a foe were rising against me,
I could hide.
But it is you, a man like myself,
my companion, my close friend,
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship
at the house of God,
as we walked about
among the worshipers.
Forgive
I am working on this one, although it is hard God promises it is worth it. When David experienced this with one of his close aides, he poured out his heart to God. He spoke and confided in God and he didn't lash out but in turn forgave him who betrayed him. Jesus can relate to us here after all one of his close disciples betrayed Him to death. He forgave him because He knows the bigger plan of God.

Forgiveness is so often hard. Our flesh gets in the way and wants to hang onto the pain and the hurt. I am learning to let go, because I want to live FREE! Thanks for linking up my friend.

so beautiful...I was just discussing this with my priest last night..
ReplyDelete.I pray for the ability to pray to forgive!
Hi momto8,
DeleteWhat an awesome prayer that is, praying for the ability to forgive. I am learning that forgiving all starts with loving. When we love like Jesus loves then it is easier to forgive especially when we look at ourselves and we see how God forgives us.
Blessings,
