They rob us. They torture us more than the original pain that made us create them. I needed this passage today. As I read it, as I meditated on it, the grudge began to melt away. Only love can do that.
Love is the great grudge remover.
I will continue to love my friend. And when the time is right I may share how his actions made me feel, for that, too, is love. Pray that God might help you overcome it, replacing it with love. Lord, it is not easy getting along with others, especially those closet to us. Things are said and done, or left unsaid or not done that really hurt.
