Turning it Over to God
Thought for the Day
“There are times we can get stuck looking for justice and vengeance against someone who has wronged us. We are told that God will judge everyone according to their actions. Having faith in this is very freeing as we can leave any punishment we feel someone should get in His hands.”
Today’s Word
“God “will repay each person according to what they have done.” To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.” (Romans 2:6-9 NIV)
Today’s Prayer Father, there are times when my thoughts get caught up in looking for justice to come to those who have crossed me. When I do, I try to remember that they, like me, will have to account for our actions to You. Knowing this, I hand over any judgment to You so I may be set free of thoughts that I may, in time, also have to answer to You for. Amen.
