You Can Forgive That Person

“Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.” The example has been set. We all have faults that may rub someone else the wrong way. We are still human with the tendency to mess up. None of us have reached the mark of being perfect. Even though someone got really deep under your skin, finding the way to deal with it is vitally important. To be reactionary all the time, and for things that shouldn’t be worth your attention, walk away, and know Jesus went through much worse than that for you. One of the hardest things to deal with in life is unforgiveness. Yes, the other person was wrong, yes they went too far this time, but if you can shift that anger towards them to your real enemy, Satan, come against him with God’s word and the name of Jesus concerning that person. Practice working the word of God in areas like, preferring your brother before yourself (Romans 12:10). Focusing on the love of God that bears up under anything and everything that comes (1 Corinthians 13:7). Walking in the agape love of God will be like walking in a deeper dimension of understanding for that person who wronged you, and that will make it easier to forgive.
