Lesson 3 to Live By

"And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.” – Mark 11:25

LESSON 3: Let go of any anger and to forgive those for the damage they caused in your life.

Everyone gets angry from time to time. It's a normal human emotion. But when we can't let go, anger consumes our thoughts, and begins to destroy our lives. Our hearts harden, we become bitter, and joy is sapped from our daily existence. 

Make it a habit to allow the offenses of others to roll off your back like water on a duck. Historical anger is like a malignant tumor.  While its effects may go unnoticed at first, it will eventually be a painful, all-consuming death sentence to your soul. Let go of it and smile.

Seeking and Following,

You go nowhere by accident. Wherever you go, God is sending you, wherever you are, God has put you there; He has a purpose in your being there. Christ who dwells within you has something He wants to do through you wherever you are. Believe this and go in His grace and love and power.
