The Enabler

Jesus can help you and enable you to survive trouble and tribulation. He will enable you to forgive others who have hurt you, rejected you and wronged you. Those who have harmed you are living in ignorance and darkness. His light points the way to the truth. Notes from Charles Stanley sermon, Atlanta, Georgia, 8-2010
Forgiveness "Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." Colossians 3:12-14 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this writing, Paul offers us a strategy to allow us to live for God day after day. We are to imitate Christs compassionate and forgiving attitude. We are to have love guide our daily lives. Allow the peace of God be the number one ruler of your own heart. Forever and always be thankful. Keep the work of God in you at all times. Live as though you a representative of Christ in your daily walk. These words are taken from the Life Application Study Bible, New International version, Zondervan. p.2166.
