FORGIVENESS
I read something today someone wrote about this line of scripture "THE LORD IS SLOW TO ANGER AND RICH IN KINDNESS, FORGIVING WICKEDNESS AND CRIME." (Nm 14: 18)
It read as follows:
"So wide is God's mercy that no sin is too great or too small for forgiveness. So much narrower is our CHARITY that we often find the small annoyances the hardest to forgive. The more often we turn in prayer to the all-forgiving God, the more we will become like Him in extending the hand of pardon to others in EVERY DAILY CIRCUMSTANCE."
Maybe if we could try just a bit harder to be truly CHARITABLE in all of our dealings within our own families and all the people around us each day, then perhaps peace and joy will abound....imagine what could happen if everyone did this!!!
