Quick to Forgive: Not Letting Small Things Ruin Our Day

Isn’t it crazy how we can let the littlest thing someone does to us, intentionally or not, ruin our whole day? Happens to me all the time. Could be anything, a dumb question, solicitor call, unexpected reports or paperwork, you name it. A lot of times, it throws us off so much we can’t wait to tell others what someone did! It can become insidious. But sometimes that happens, doesn’t it? Intentionally or unintentionally, someone ticks us off, even in a minor way, and we let it get under our skin and bug us all day long.But what if we got so good at quickly and easily forgiving that instead of notifying everyone that we’re ticked off, we didn’t even notice those things? “Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.”Ephesians 4:31-32 So Be Nice. Grace Wins.FMJHappy Independence Day!
