My Beach Get Away

I spent two days at the Beach, just GOD and my dog Iris.I really needed it, I just wanted to spend time with GOD and hear from him, funny thing was GOD showed me he"s always there and I just need to get better at listening to him, I hear the same thing from my wife, Ha! Ha!. We talked about the closeness of love and forgiveness, how they are so closely related to each other.
Abideing in GOD'S love is our only hope, it is the only true home for our heart.
It is not only that we mentally acknowledge that GOD love's us but we must allow our hearts to come home to GOD and stay in his love.
Forgiveness play's right alongside of love, If you have your heart at home with GOD you want to move into forgiveness.
First important point to remember is you can't wait to forgive until you feel like forgiving, you will never get there, feelings take time to heal, only after the choice to forgive has been made.
Second point to remember is unforgiveness can ruin your life and the lives of others around us, Paul warned us about this in Eph. 4:31 and we see it in Heb. 12:15.
Look at it this way, Forgiveness is like setting a prisoner free, and then discovering the prisoner was you. Ouch!! that statement really worked on my heart.
Thank's for stoppin by to read this.
I did get away with a new favorite scripture, it is 1John 3:16-18.
I pray GOD richly blesses you in all things. Ken M
