DO
NOT-- BEAR GRUDGES AGAINST ONE ANOTHER
Grudge
not one against another, brethren,... James 5:9
[KJV]
A
"One Anothering" Thought
Bear
Grudges means:
to hold onto a feeling of ill will or resentment
to continue resenting the good fortune of another; to have a
begrudging attitude
to be reluctant or unwilling to submit to forgiveness
A grudge is a feeling of resentment harbored because of
some real or fancied wrong. Scripture says we are not to harbor
grudges against anyone, but especially not against our brothers
and sisters in Christ.
ONE-ANOTHERING IN
ACTION: Today examine yourself to see if you might be
bearing a grudge against someone. If you are, pray and ask God
to remove this grudging attitude from you and replace it with His
love. Tell Him you want to be cleansed from the begrudging
attitude so you can walk in His love and forgiveness,and so be
obedient to His word. Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any
grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:18
[KJV]
