To Vs. For Eph 4:32 #RTTBROS #Nightlight

To Vs. For Eph 4:32 #RTTBROS #Nightlight 

 "And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." - Ephesians 4:32 (KJV)


“The key to forgiving others is to stop focusing on what they did to you and start focusing on what God did for you”. Max Lucado


In today's fast-paced and often unforgiving world, it can be challenging to let go of the hurt and pain caused by others. However, Max Lucado's quote reminds us that forgiveness is not about excusing the wrongs done to us, but rather shifting our focus from the hurt to the overwhelming grace and forgiveness we have received from God.


Consider Joseph from the Old Testament. His brothers sold him into slavery out of jealousy, yet he chose to forgive them. Instead of harboring bitterness, Joseph chose to focus on what God had done for him. He recognized that God had a plan for his life, even in the midst of betrayal and hardship. Ultimately, Joseph's forgiveness and faithfulness to God's plan allowed him to save his family from famine and reconcile with his brothers.


In our own lives, we can follow Joseph's example by shifting our focus from the wrongs done to us to the incredible love and forgiveness that God has shown us through Christ. When we remember the depth of God's forgiveness, it becomes easier to extend that same forgiveness to others. As we meditate on God's grace and mercy, let us strive to be kind, tenderhearted, and forgiving towards one another, just as God, for Christ's sake, has forgiven us.
