Ephesians 4:32 NASB "Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you."I understood cause I had done it myself! Today we have some great advice in how to treat each other and learning to forgive cause we have been forgiven! Buying a used automobile means putting up with what the previous owner had done to it, and while I went to change the oil for the first time, I found that they had rounded off the bolts leading to the oil filter- ugh!!! I wanted to get mad at them but I remembered that the first time I did an oil change on a similar vehicle, I did the same thing to the bolts - that God for five star sockets! (that's for the car guys out there! ) God's Word tells us to be kind, compassionate, forgiving because we have been forgiven! I'm sure that somewhere along the line, we've done things that others didn't appreciate, so let's not be so quick to get back at them, just think Jesus from the Cross said "Father forgive them for they no not what they do!" Maybe we should have the same attitude toward others! peace, tom
