Loving God. Loving our Neighbours.
Life throws some hard things at us. How do we stand firm in those times where we feel like the bottom has fallen away? Sometimes, it is not us who is standing, but Christ who is holding us through those turbulent moments. Let’s look at the full depth of Psalm 46. What does it mean to truly trust God?
We all make mistakes. And sometimes, in making those mistakes, we hurt someone. Yes, it is the responsibility of the person who caused offense to make it right. But… it’s also important to those who have been hurt to be readily, eagerly, graciously offering forgiveness. This can be a difficult thing to do, but let’s look a little more at how that looks and what it means to truly forgive in that kind of freedom.
Do you ever need help getting back on track? We all do! We all need help in our community of believers. No one is perfect, and we lean heavily on each other at different seasons in our lives. We are called to mutual support, gentleness and love. How do we care for one another? That is our witness to the world.
