My prayer:
Awesome God, THANK YOU! You made today go so smoothly. I was dreading returning back to work, worried about what I would find, but you took care of everything! Thank you Jesus!!And yet, even in my giving thanks to you tonight, my mind strays to the one offense from today. The one thing that did not even bother me at the time but now, as I think about it, I find myself taking offense. Thinking, "She had no right to say that!"
But, that is ridiculous thinking. All it does is take the focus away from all of the blessings you heaped on me today. God, I ask for your help to let go of any offense. I choose to let it go and I ask for your help to not pick it up again. That offense is an enemy to me, to you and to the blessings you provided me and I will not allow it to fester in me. THANK YOU!
What God Said Tonight:
You will soon see the new heaven and the new earth. You will see that it is full of light and free from darkness. You will see that pain and offense do not live there.The more you can live free of those things now, the more at home you will be in the new heaven and the new earth.
Letting go of an offense is not weakness. It is the strongest and kindest thing you can do. Living a life of grace means giving it as well as receiving it.
I love you sweet child. Go, in my grace.
