Have you ever held a grudge against someone? A grudge is resenting someone because of something they did to you in the past. The thing about grudges is something about it feels fair, like we hold a grudge to teach them a lesson.
But the truth is, the grudge always does more harm to the person holding it. A grudge doesn’t teach anyone a lesson. It just creates more hurt, and keeps people stuck in the pain that got them there. This is why I think God asks us to forgive quickly. But He doesn’t just ask that of us without giving us an example Himself. In this verse from Isaiah, we see God leads the way. His forgiveness is far-reaching. We never have to wonder where we stand. And if God does that for us, then we can do the same for others.
This week, remember that you are not less than because of your mistakes. You are not defined by the sin of your past.

About this Plan
We’ve all got vibes—moods we experience or things we feel in deep and real ways. And while there’s nothing wrong with feeling all the feels, the problem comes when we let these passing vibes become the motivators of our moods and actions. In this 28-day devotional, we’re going to dive deep to figure out what we can do to better control our vibes instead of letting our vibes control us.
