Ep. 883 - The Whale

MINISTRY MOMENT

Are you holding onto unforgiveness? Why or why not? It doesn’t matter if it’s justified or not, unforgiveness is like drinking poison and hoping it hurts the other person.

PRAYER POINT

"Lord, help me to forgive. I know I can’t on my own, but I am choosing today to invite Your Holy Spirit to bring forgiveness into my life towards ______. I don’t want to carry that anymore. Regardless of what they have done to me - I choose to forgive and I trust You."

GOING DEEPER

Read Matthew 18:21-35 and the book of Jonah.

WALK IT OUT

Forgiveness is often a process. Sometimes it’s instant, but sometimes it’s a process. It can be a daily decision. I want to clarify something before we close - forgiveness isn’t an endorsement for bad behavior. Forgiveness is simply forfeiting your right to be the self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner. That’s not our job. We aren’t God.

SHARE WITH OTHERS

Be willing to have courageous conversations with other people who have navigated hard things and chosen forgiveness and how they walked it out.
