Grace for your spirit August 29, 2008

Therefore if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering. Matthew 5:23-24

The goal of the Christian life is to be one with God and man. We need to be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ, and be reconciled to man by the love we have from God. We may never be able to live at peace with everyone, but as far as it depends on us, let’s try to make that happen. We shouldn’t be going through the motions at church, when aren’t truly attempting be reconciled to God and men. Before we worship again, let’s reach out to others. Remember Proverbs 16:7, "When a man’s ways are pleasing to the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him." Let’s take that first step.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
