1. When we keep a GRUDGE, we’re putting ourselves in the place of God.

2. The fastest way to become like SATAN is to try to be God. The fastest way to become like CHRIST is to refuse to be God.
3. Prayer will ACCOMPLISH more in the human heart than any natural, human effort.

4. The conversation you’re AVOIDING most may be what sets someone’s soul free.

“There are two kinds of sin: one is confessed, and this no one
should leave unforgiven; the other kind is defended, and this no
one can forgive, for it refuses either to be counted as sin or to
accept forgiveness.”
-Martin Luther
5. The point of confrontation isn’t to win the conversation but to win your BROTHER.

6. When our hearts are closed to ANOTHER, it’s an indication that our heart was not open to Jesus.

7. The failure of the servant wasn’t that he sought repayment, it was that he didn’t address the HYPOCRISY within himself.

8. When we avoid reconciliation it’s says that we trust more in the EVIL of man than the GOODNESS of God.
