Take this seed of a thought below
and turn it into a wisdom tree.
ENTHUSIASM FOR A GREAT CAUSE
Don't be timid and
tired when and if you sometimes shout "Hallelujah" that's your
Almighty God you are cheering.
HOW DOES YOUR CREDIT REPORT READ?
These thoughts are
added to each day. (Use in your personal or church newsletters) (365 stories a
year)
A man went to a party and had too much to drink. First he made a fool of himself. Then he passed out. The next morning he felt terribly contrite and asked his wife to forgive him. She said she understood and would “forgive and forget.” But then as time went by, months actually, she continually referred to the incident. After awhile he got tired of hearing about it and complained, “I thought you said you were going to forgive and forget?”
“I have forgiven and forgotten,” was her reply, “but I just don’t want you to forget that I have forgiven and forgotten.”
We do that. We want to perpetually have our name on a credit report. Continually receive credit for being nice or we won’t be nice anymore. Thank goodness God doesn’t work that way. We repent. He redeems. End of story.
"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ, God forgave you." (Ephesians 4:32)
