Little Nuggets-24: Keeps No Record of Wrongs

First Corinthians 13:5 gives us a guide for dealing with problems in our relationships. IT ALL HINGES ON LOVE. Love is not easily provoked to anger. It "thinks no evil" by refusing to keep a record of wrongs. Anger puts every offence on an endless playback loop, but love turns off the switch.

At work, at home, at church, we need to ask the Lord to give us the courage to abandon the 'playback' button and make frequent use of 'erase'. Let us show His love by keeping no record of wrongs.

David McCarland in "Our Daily Bread"
