THE RELATIONSHIP CHOICE The Life’s Healing Choices: The Beatitudes - Part 6

To evaluate all of my relationships, offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me, and make amends for harm that I have done to others HOW PEOPLE HURT  We hurt physically  We hurt ­emotionally  We hurt relationally "... those I loved most have turned against me." - Job 19:19

“Happy are those who are merciful to others.” - Matthew 5:7 “At that point Peter got up the nerve to ask, ‘Master, how many times do I forgive a brother or sister who hurts me? Seven?’ “Jesus replied, ‘Seven! Hardly. Try seventy times seven. - Matthew 18:21-35 (MSG)

I. Because I have been forgiven, I can forgive The Prodigal Son (and daughter) - Luke 15 “Bless the Lord, O my soul; all my inmost being, bless his holy name.” - Psalm 103:1 (NIV)

II. The unforgiving become the unforgiven “And forgive us our sins, just as we have forgiven those who have sinned against us.” - Matt. 6:12 (NLT) “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.” - Matt. 6:14-15 (NLT)

“But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your sins, too.” - Mark 11:25 (NLT) “Stop judging others, and you will not be judged. Stop criticizing others, or it will all come back on you. If you forgive others, you will be - Luke 6:37 (NLT) “For there will be no mercy for you if you have not been merciful to others. But if you have been merciful, then God’s mercy toward you will win out over his judgment against you.” - James 2:13 (NLT)

How can I become a forgiver? 1. The first is to nail it to the cross 2. Start right now, start today

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” - Matthew 5:9 “All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” - 2 Cor 5:18 God Has called us to be Peacemaker not Peace keepers

ILL. - Someone said, “Love is the identifying mark of Christianity. In a world of hate, envy, and anger, love sticks out like a healthy thumb. When anyone walks away from an encounter with us, that person should remember our love, not our convictions.” May God help us to love, to demonstrate mercy and pursue peace.
