Choose to Forgive
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:9 (NIV)
But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”—Matthew 3:14 NIV
Have you ever argued with God? Shook your fist at an outcome or a situation? Made choices that have gone against His instructions? In the above Bible verse, after listening, John ultimately agreed to follow God. The next time you don’t agree with God’s instructions, instead of arguing—listen.
Thank You, Lord, for the wisdom of Your Word. I am open and ready to hear what You need to say to me.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:9 (NIV)
Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.—1 Thessalonians 4:11 (NLT)
When Job’s three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite, heard about all the troubles that had come upon him, they set out from their homes and met together by agreement to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.—Job 2:11 (NIV)
