The path to fulfillment is not always easy, but it is through the valleys that we build character and are prepared for the seasons of triumph. [... more]

Dying To Move On (cont'd)

When we hold people in unforgiveness, we are like a servant who was just forgiven a debt, yet we go out to demand payment from others.

Dying To Move On

Forgiveness is not a good idea, but God's express will. When we're called to forgive those who have trespassed against us, it's not because He doesn't care about what happened to us, but because He wants to take the next 20 years and show us how great His power is and how much He can overcome what happened in our past.
