It is easy to receive the “Grace Message” and become so focused on God’s love for us and grace toward us that we forget that there is a whole lot more to living in this world. For example, how are our relationships with others? Are there unresolved issues? Are there offenses?
Jesus was all about people and we should be, too.
Jesus was very practical in addressing these issues during his ministry on earth. He said in Matthew 5 and Matthew 18 that we need to “Go to our brother and try to make things right.” No problem.
Actually it is a big problem for some who are either trapped in the bitterness of an unresolved offense or who are hurting others and
need to be approached in love about being thoughtful. Jesus was our ultimate example of putting others first.
As is the case with most everything about our walk with the Lord our answers are found by looking to Him. Listen to this brief podcast to discover how to handle offenses in grace.
