January 27, 2022Not Holding Grudges
Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord. Leviticus 19:18
During a promotional event in 2011, two seventy-three-year-old former Canadian Football League players got into a fistfight on stage. They had a “beef” (a grudge or feud) dating back to a controversial championship football game in 1963. After one man knocked the other off the stage, the crowd called out to him to “let it go!” They were telling him to “squash the beef.”
The Bible contains many examples of people “beefing.” Cain held a grudge against his brother Abel because God accepted Abel’s offering over his (Genesis 4:4–5). This grudge was so severe that it eventually led to murder as “Cain attacked his brother . . . and killed him” (v. 8). “Esau held a grudge against Jacob” because Jacob stole the birthright that was rightfully his (27:41). This grudge was so intense that it caused Jacob to run for his life in fear.
Not only does the Bible give us several examples of people who held grudges, but it also instructs us on how to “squash the beef”—how to seek forgiveness and reconciliation. God calls us to love others (Leviticus 19:18), pray for and forgive those who insult and injure us (Matthew 5:43–47), live peaceably with all people, leave revenge to God, and overcome evil with good (Romans 12:18–21). By His power, may we “squash the beef” today. — Marvin Williams
Why is it vital for us to not hold grudges? How will you work to restore a broken or damaged relationship this week?
Jesus, thank You that I can forgive others because You’ve forgiven me.

The pilot and Herzing’s cousin safely ejected into the water but landed in the middle of the spreading fuel stain from the sunken Jet. In his excitement to mark their location, a Nimitz deckhand fired a flare into the sea. The fuel erupted into flames and the men died.
sucks to be that pilot.

Good evening, Pro...we must remember them.
Hope some of your cold is going away.
I think our heat wave is over, and snow is coming. Nights are back into the teens.
