There are plenty of opportunities each day for us to take offence. I’ve personally been aware of some bad attitudes creeping in lately. When we’ve been hurt ….. we can start to build our case ….. and we see everything through a filter of cynicism or sarcasm. These are mechanisms to protect ourselves from further pain by pointing the finger ….. and passing judgement on our perpetrators. The problem is that our ‘filter’ prevents us from seeing clearly and keeps us stuck in a place where we can only be happy if things change. Acknowledge the pain ….. forgive those who hurt you ….. and let them go. God says ‘Vengeance is Mine. I will repay!’ When we know God’s supremacy and absolute authority ….. we can move on with our lives ….. knowing He’s got us in the palms of His hands.
