(on forgiveness) Didn't he and I stand together before an all seeing God convicted of the same murder? For I had murdered him with my heart and my tongue.

Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.

Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.

It is not my ability, but my response to God’s ability, that counts.

There are no 'if's' in God's world. And no places that are safer than other places. The center of His will is our only safety - let us pray that we may always know it!

Discernment is God's call to intercession, never to faultfinding.
