"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Love One Another

"We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing." 2Thessalonians 1:3

I overheard a comment made at church the other day that really saddened me. The main gist was that two women were not talking to each other. It made me think how much it grieves our Heavenly Father when we as Christian do not get along with each other and choose not to speak to each other. The verse above points out that just as our faith grows, so also should our love for one another.

Where are you at today, my friend? Is their a grievance between you and someone else that needs to be resolved? Don't let another day go by with ill feelings toward another. Pray and ask for forgiveness before you approach the person.

Praise God that we can choose to forgive someone, with His help. My prayer for you today is that you will walk in Christ's freedom.
