Hello and Merry Christmas,
God is good all the time, all the time God is good.
This is the time of year when people hustle around, buying presents, and getting ready for Christmas, Santa, New Years and new resolutions.
So, why not start your new year with a resolution that you can actually do and stay with. It is called FORGIVENESS! Jesus commanded this in Matthew 18: 21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times
What Jesus is saying is there is no end to forgiveness. However, there is a limit to tolerating the bad (evil) things happening. Example: If someone is being abused, they can draw a line in the sand and say, "this is it, if it happens again I am out of here". Then stand firm. We can forgive, but we won't forget nor do we need to bring the past back up. Grant forgiveness and move forward. Jesus loves you and may your Christmas and New Year be bright, joyful, and full of God's blessings. Love y'all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
