Do You Hold a Grudge

I knew of a "brother" who held a grudge. From his position. He wouldn't "budge." When asked why he held this... against a certain person. Having nothing to do with him. He was certain! The reason for this grudge... Is probably "silly" to many. When asked for a good reason. There wasn't any. He said; "I don't hold any kind of unforgiveness." "What I do..." "It's none of your business!" "I don't hold a grudge and I want to be clear!" "There are some people... I wish weren't here!" Are there people in your life who've been "shut out.?" "Is this what being Christ' example is all about? Living for Christ is not about who we "avoid." If a life of Godliness is to be fully enjoyed. We can make "excuses" to stay away from somebody. This could be your brother. Neighbor. Or anybody. Christ gave his life and wants us to follow his rules... He knows all about us.... And is never fooled! May your life be filled with compassion for every soul. In doing this... You'll be made complete and whole! Discover true freedom. Leave any "grudges" in the past. Enjoy true victory in Christ... And a peace that 'll last! By Jim Pembeton 08/01/09
