THIS WEEK'S TAKEAWAYS
Key Theme:
Walking with our enemies in the face of personal injustice and pain is hard but we must trust God rather than seeking vengeance on our own.
Key Application:
Through the power of Jesus’ example and forgiveness choose to forgive, love, and pray for our enemies trusting justice to the Lord.
Key Verses:
Deuteronomy 32:35 “Vengeance is mine, and recompense, for the time when their foot shall slip; for the day of their calamity is at hand, and their doom comes swiftly."
Romans 5:10 “For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.”
Key Questions:
1. Am I trusting God with the desire for justice, or am I holding onto feelings of vengeance toward those who have wronged me?
2. How can I practically show love and forgiveness to someone who has hurt me, even when complete reconciliation may not be possible right away?
3. Am I willing to pray for my enemies and seek their well-being, as Jesus commands, despite the pain they may have caused?

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
