Go Work It Out

Greetings to all; as we begin this week, let us not spend our time being stubborn or angry at others, waiting for them to come to us.

In life, there are times when relationships will be fractured, broken, or ended. Although God's word encourages us to give reconciliation a chance, we sometimes refuse to go to the other person to work it out because of pain, bitterness, and stubbornness.

Matthew 18:15 (MSG)

15 "If a fellow believer hurts you, go and tell him—work it out between the two of you. If he listens, you have made a friend.

Lesson: Life is too short, and precious time is wasted when we sit and wait for others to come to us. Although there may be pain, we cannot control the place of priority where others place us in their lives. We will sometimes have to be the ones to go if things are going to work out. Let us go and stop waiting for something to work out.
