Forgiveness is waiting at the Cross

Forgiveness is waiting at the Cross

And the Lord turned and looked at Peter, Then Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”  Luke 22:61

I’d lost contact with my dearest friends. Looking back at my wedding photos I realized how I’d failed to keep up with many of my closest friends.

Recently, I called a woman I hadn’t spoken to in almost nineteen years. I’d purposely lost contact because she didn’t measure up to my expectations of a “good friend.” She’d served as the maid of honor in my wedding and was even with me the moment I met my husband. We were best friends and had weathered a lot together. I could have blamed my lack of relationship on many things, but I knew I harbored unforgiveness over a spat. I didn’t see my feelings as unforgiveness, I just thought she wasn’t a good friend. Then I realized, the problem wasn’t her … it was me.

The Lord knew Peter, one of His closest friends, would deny Him three times in one night. Talk about painful … with all they’d been through together, it had to hurt. But Jesus knew Peter’s heart. He understood sometimes our friends can’t come through for us because of where they are personally.

In the case of Peter, he went back to his previous occupation, a fisherman, refusing to see himself worthy to do what Jesus had called him to do. It wasn’t until Jesus met with him on the beach that Peter could move forward in his call, knowing Jesus had forgiven him and still thought of him as His friend … such a friend that Jesus dubbed him “the rock.”

Forgiveness begins by opening the door of love for those who have hurt us or let us down. This simple act of kindness allows us to move forward. One phone call to a “friend” let me know I was the only one looking at the relationship with the wrong perception, and I’d missed out on years of a friendship.

As you reflect on past and present relationships, make sure you have done all you can to enable them to know Christ’s love and grace through you. Forgive as Jesus forgave and find the enrichment of a Christ-like love.

Deeper than Deep Love – She Said

Stepping on my heart

… bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. Luke 6:28 NIV

Sometimes my heart just breaks. Cracks down the middle and falls apart. Crumbles. You’d think after thirty-one years, I’d figure it out. But no. Guess not.

We’re a blended family. Our children were toddlers when Tim and I married. Yet, as close as our family is, my kids still break my heart.

I try to blame their thoughtlessness on the fact they’re “men.” I’ve lived the bulk of my adult life in a household full of testosterone … even the animals are male. So when I think they’ve grasped hold of how women think, they bust me in the chops.

Don’t misunderstand, I love my boys. They’re all wonderful men but they’ve had their moments of inconsideration. For the most part, they’re responsible, wonderful, young men. Then boom. Stupid happens and the “male” thing takes over. Mom suddenly becomes the enemy, even when I’m hundreds of miles away and have nothing to do with their issues. I’m the scapegoat, the battering ram, the busted board after the chop.

It’s not my problem alone, but it’s shared by thousands of other moms across the nation. Sometimes our sweetest babies break our hearts. But just because mine occasionally hurt me doesn’t mean I discount them. Instead, I step up my love and forgiveness for them. I love them more, not less. I love them deeper than deep love.

Jesus stood peering from a mountainside as thousands of people from coastal regions gathered. He could sense their pain, their hurts, their impure spirits, and He knew many had only come to be healed. It kinda made Him sad. Here were thousands of God’s children waiting on His touch, yet how many really came to the mountain to know the Father?

That day Jesus gave blessings and warnings. Serious warnings. In a swift sentence He commanded those listening to love their enemies, do good to those who hated them, bless those who cursed them, and to pray for those who mistreated them. With one quick breath of wisdom, Jesus “stepped up” the qualifications of love.

It’s easy to love those who love us back, but it’s hard to love them “more” when they hurt us. Well meaning friends point their finger and say, “ignore them” or “give them a piece of your mind.” But that’s not what Jesus taught. He taught us to raise the bar. Love more. Deeper.

My boys have their moments. But my love for them only strengthens when they hurt me. I love them more and I stand, just as Jesus did, with open arms … waiting for their return.

When you’re mistreated and hurt, when your heart cracks — pick up the pieces. Glue them together with Christ-like love … for love never goes unnoticed.

Let them come unto Me...

Let them come unto Me…

​Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. Matthew 6:19

The rain fell and our newly constructed home had more dirt than grass.

I watched the puddles form and waited to welcome the neighborhood children for a weekly Bible club. They came in droves and filled the small chairs borrowed from our church’s nursery, and then spilled onto the floor. I was thrilled to see these little ones so eager to hear stories from the Bible.

While I prepared to lead the singing, I caught a glimpse of my new carpet. The children I’d waited for so eagerly had walked through muddy puddles and dark, wet footprints covered the soft floor. I taught the flannel-graph lesson, but my mind was on the new carpet—I knew I wasn’t handling the issue well at all. Class ended and the kids clutched their memory verse cards and left for home.

As the mud dried, I wrestled with the Lord over my attitude about material things. He drew my attention to the same Scripture the kids were to memorize. Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. I knew the next verse and His words penetrated my heart, For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

I tearfully asked His forgiveness and, while vacuuming, I was reminded the carpet was not mine, nor were any other possessions. These precious little ones with eternal souls were much more valuable than my carpet. God clearly showed me where my heart was focused. But that’s His job … to love me into seeing that my heart belongs to Him, not to the possessions of this earth.
​
The mud disappeared from the carpet, and so did the mud in my heart. It vanished as I confessed. I recalled the verse God used before we opened our home for the Bible club. Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. And having settled the issue of priorities, I truly rejoiced.

Examine your heart today and see where it is focused. If it fits snugly in the arms of the world, pull it out and hand it to the One who will change it all.

You’re Fired! – Toni Campbell

Watch what you say

It only takes a spark, remember, to set off a forest fire. A careless or wrongly placed word out of your mouth can do that. By our speech we can ruin the world, turn harmony to chaos, throw mud on a reputation, send the whole world up in smoke and go up in smoke with it, smoke right from the pit of hell. James 3:5-6 The Message

“What are you doing here? I understand you’ve been fired.” That was my greeting one Monday morning.

My heart skipped a few beats and my mind raced. What? About the time I realized a real termination wouldn’t have been handled in such a manner, my boss continued. “You’re not of course, but that was the rumor going around.”

It took a few conversations, but I was able to trace back the full story. It was never meant as anything mean-spirited, but when a co-worker didn’t want an intern to know the real nature of his conversation, he said I’d been let go the day before. He then recanted, admitting the joke. His confession fell on deaf ears and Monday morning, the intern asked other co-workers if they’d heard the news. That set off a firestorm, leading to a check of my Facebook status to see if there was any mention of the incident, a glance into my office looking for signs of a quick exit, and a consultation with my boss. A few moments later, I arrived at work and my boss entered my office with the above-mentioned pronouncement.

Guarding our tongues is something all of us struggle with, and it’s not always an obvious choice like whether to speak angry words, wallow in prideful boasting, or spread a rumor. Sometimes it appears as innocent as a shared prayer request. When done without permission, it’s a form of gossip. Thank God I wasn’t fired . . . but the power of the tongue to wreck havoc was made clear.

Haven’t we all uttered words we wish we could take back? Once they’re spoken, the damage is done. It’s necessary to make amends and seek forgiveness. The tongue has the power to build up or destroy. Choose words today that help and heal.

Reasons to Love Conviction – Elaine Price

I'm sorry Momma

He will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment… John 16:8 HCSB

Does God really love me?

“Satan told Eve the lies he continues to whisper into every human heart today. Why should I do what God says when I can do whatever I want? Have you ever believed that lie?” I asked my children this one morning.

I wasn’t really expecting any answers. With tears in his eyes, Joel raised his hand and said, “I have, Mama.” Conviction fell over our breakfast table as my newly saved six-year-old threw himself into my arms. He breathed heavily as I told him, “I have believed Satan’s lies too. We all have. The good news is when we ask Jesus to forgive us – He does.”

Conviction of sin is not enjoyable, but it is the first step to forgiveness. We will never repent of sins if we do not know they are wrong in God’s sight. The conviction of the Holy Spirit is a bulldozer breaking up the rubble of sin on the road to God. It is necessary to bring us to repentance, which will then lead to forgiveness and freedom.

I know all these facts. Sounds appealing, but I don’t always open up when I feel the Holy Spirit knocking. It feels as if He is coming to bring me bad news when in reality, He is coming to bring me hope — hope that God can change me.

Joel didn’t run from the Holy Spirit. He actually welcomed Him. My son taught me to be honest with God and myself about where I am struggling. I want to throw open the doors of my heart to the Holy Spirit and allow Him to convict me of what is keeping me from God. I want to raise my hand as Joel did and proclaim, “I have God!”

When is the last time you allowed God full access? Open yourself to Him today and ask Him for conviction leading to forgiveness. He will come with power into your life and change you. He will set you free.

Drop Those Rocks – Blossom Turner

What stones do you throw?

If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her. John 8:7b

I never want to go back to that dark place.

In those days, anger poured out all too often. I moved through the motions of the Christian life. Defiantly, I would flip my Bible open to skim through a daily reading out of obligation, not love. One particular day, God had enough of the duplicity in my heart and decided to jump off the pages of His Word.

My eyes fell on the eighth chapter of John. Like the Pharisees who brought the adulterous woman to Jesus, black-hearted condemnation filled my being. Over 2000 years melted away. There I stood, rock in hand. The woman who had trespassed on my marriage knelt in the dust before me. Blood drained from my fingertips as I gripped that stone in preparation. It didn’t feel big enough. I wanted retribution for the pain she’d caused.

Then Jesus inconveniently spoke. “If any one of you is without sin, cast the first stone.”

He looked my way. His eyes bore into mine before He knelt to the ground and scribbled sins in the dirt—envy, hatred, bitterness, rage, unforgiveness—all mine.

Heavy tears slid down my cheeks as I wept uncontrollably. The rock slipped free, dust billowing at my feet. I turned away.

I could hear Jesus talking to her, that adulterous woman. Instinct told me to run, but the Spirit compelled me to listen.

“Neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go and sin no more.”

His words were a reminder to me.

Have you ever been outraged by the pain someone else inflicted on you? The key to unlock that prison of perpetual anger is God’s forgiveness. His power gives us strength to drop those rocks. His Spirit convicts us of our own wrongdoing. His love covers a multitude of sin.

From personal experience, I know—God forgives. He frees. He heals the brokenhearted. If you have been wounded by life’s sorrow, believe and hope. Cry out to Jesus. He will comfort and heal. Let Him.

Ultimate Sacrifice – She Said

Ultimately protected

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21

I watched as my boys swiped their eyes. They were in middle school, but I understood the desire to keep them safe.

We watched as another mother sacrificed all she had to protect her child. He was destined for greatness and she wanted him to experience it…despite what happened to her.

A tear formed. I’d do what I needed to do to care for my kids too. I think most parents would. They’re our offspring, our legacy…our babies. It’s instinctive for us to ensure their safety.

Even on a good day, raising kids is tough. We offer them guidance, give them direction, teach them right from wrong, still they manage to find themselves in harm’s way. The call comes from law enforcement or worse, the hospital, letting us know they’re in trouble, injured, or…dead. How could we have failed our babies? How could this happen?

God is a loving parent. He knew us before He formed us in our mother’s womb yet in His loving kindness, He kissed us and allowed us to make our own choices. God watched from above as we muddled and tripped our way through life making mistake after mistake. And when we fouled things up beyond what we could see as fixable, God changed it all. He did what no other had the courage or love to do. He sacrificed that which He loved most so we might find righteousness. We might be saved.

Christ came as flesh, walked our pathway, then stepped into the line of fire. It’s easy to talk about the love of our Father in heaven, but rarely do we wrap our heads around the true sacrifice He made.

The movie ended and the credits to Bambi rolled across the screen. I know, it was just a Disney movie, but really — it was more. That first initial scene where the mother doe sacrifices herself for her son, dug deep. It drove home the meaning of the sacrifice God gave. What a gift. What love that God’s innocent child died for me.

So maybe I cried at Bambi. I was in good company since sniffles echoed through the entire theater, but I got it. I understood. Leaving the theater, I pulled my boys close. God embraces me too, and through His amazing gift we have righteousness and eternal life. Snuggle under His arm. He waits for you.

Faith – Kevin Spencer

Shackles and Chains

What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see. Hebrews 11:1

On a sweltering hot Florida summer day in 1987, confined in handcuffs and leg irons, I shuffled off a prison bus and stepped into Florida’s Marion Correctional Institution. Carrying a 46 year sentence, I stepped into the world that might be my home until I was an old man. 46 years meant 46 years. There was no parole in the Florida system at that time. What the judge handed down, you served.

The drag to pull me into the prison world that surrounded me began almost immediately. Catcalls from other inmates who lined up to see the ‘fresh fish’. In this, my shackles and leg-irons actually helped, because they marked me as someone the DOC considered ‘dangerous’. I didn’t feel very dangerous. In fact, I felt scared to death. But I knew better than to let it show. In response to my fear, I remembered MY bible verses, the one the Lord had given me on the cold floor of a concrete jail cell months earlier.

“My sheep hear my voice; I know them and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.” John 10:27,28

In that desperate moment, in that jail cell, completely broken I had reached out, and He had answered. He had touched me, and given me peace. And He had told me I would survive this, to have faith, and even more important, that this wasn’t the end of my life. I clung to that, my Father’s promise, desperately.

If there is a hell on earth, it is in a maximum custody prison. There is little of God’s love and peace to be found. The system doesn’t care if you survive your sentence, just as long as you serve it until it’s over or you stop breathing. In that environment, it’s hard to survive, to live, without letting the system trip you up. But God was faithful. He was with me every minute, even those times when I was so frustrated and wanted to give up on ever going home. Those times when I wanted to just surrender to the world I was in.

I kept my nose clean, and within 18 months of my arrival, something remarkable happened. The crack cocaine epidemic in Florida had so flooded the prison system, that they had to start letting inmates go early. This ‘gain time’ was issued based on your prison record up to that point. Because I had believed in God’s promise, had believed I would go home again, my record was clean. And I started to get to receive time off my sentence. It would take 5 more years before I would accumulate enough to go home, but in time, that day did come. On April 14th, 1994, I walked through the prison gate for the last time, and into the loving arms of my mother and father.

God was faithful. His promises are certain. Trust in Him. Put your faith in His everlasting love.

What Waits on the Other Side of Humble – Monica Frede

Unspoken Prayer Request

Your beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous will your future be. Job 8:7

I couldn’t believe I said it. There I was, sitting in a circle with a group of well-developed Christian girls, many of whom went to my high school, and I inserted my foot right into my large mouth.

We concluded our Bible study with “popcorn prayer,” and I was assigned the prayer requests from a high school senior. She became a Christian at the age of five, and I done the same just two weeks prior. But regardless, I planned to blow this prayer session out of the water with my spirituality.

My breathing became heavy and little beads of perspiration formed on my nose. We bowed our heads and closed our eyes, but I peeked to watch. One by one, each girl earnestly talked to God about the need of her sister. I can do better than that, I chuckled silently to myself.

“Heavenly Father, I ask you go give Maggie the strength to stop smoking. We know the intense pressure high school students face….” And I rambled from there. All eyes were focused on me when the prayers concluded. Home run.

Maggie announced, in a faint voice, “Monica, I asked you to pray for an ‘unspoken,’ not to stop smoking.” My face lit up like a match and I wanted to run straight through the living room wall.

Regardless of how much I wanted to grow as a Christian, I realized in that moment, mistakes will be inescapable in my daily walk with the Lord. Sometimes I will misquote the Word, forget to pray for my siblings, or even… sin.

A friend recently told me, “Don’t compare your beginning to someone else’s middle.” It might as well have been God speaking directly to me, parting the cloudy sky and shining the sunlight directly on my head. I get it now.

We cannot rush a relationship with God. Learning about Him, the Holy Spirit, and the Word takes time. In fact, it takes years. Fifteen years after my prayer snafu, I still make mistakes. But these mistakes help me re-set my pride to the humble position God seeks in all of us.

What waits on the other side of a humble life practicing patience is a prosperous future. Don’t give up, good and faithful servant, because God can’t wait to reward you.

Apples of Forgiveness – Christine Leeb

The Apple of Forgiveness

And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4:32

I reached to grab a few more animal crackers, but all I felt was fur. I was playing with my baby, Ben, who wasn’t yet crawling. We were sitting on the floor with some toys and I was snacking on some animal crackers in a tub next to me. When I put my hand in the tub I realized our dog’s entire head was stuffed into the container.

“Rugby, no.” Rugby was an eleven-year-old miniature schnauzer we had adopted the year before. He was so sweet and sensitive, and he rarely gave me reason to be upset at him, but those animal crackers were organic and from Trader Joe’s which was two hours away. I could tell he felt terrible. His head, tail, and ears drooped and he came over to me in a very apologetic way. I petted him and forgave him, but he seemed sad that he’d made me angry. I didn’t realize how badly he felt until later that night.

My husband let Rugby outside before bed. When Rugby came back inside, he dropped something on the floor in the family room. It was an apple. He brought me an apple from the tree outside, but how precious? Perhaps he noticed I ate an apple with my lunch nearly every day. He had never brought in an apple before that moment and he didn’t bring one in after that either.
What a thoughtful gesture for Rugby to apologize for taking my animal crackers. That seems to be the only logical explanation for why he brought me the apple. He wanted to make peace. He’d asked for forgiveness the only way he knew how.

God offers us His forgiveness daily. All we have to do is come to Him repentant and ask. I’m grateful for a Father who loves me this much.

Perhaps there’s someone in your life that you might need to bring an apple to. Maybe there’s a person you need to approach and ask for their forgiveness. Pick up an apple and offer an apology to someone you may have hurt. You don’t actually have to do that but, just like Rugby, I pray that you will find your own special way to say “I’m sorry.”
