Monitoring Faith Through Forgiveness

Greetings to all. On this Wednesday, let us focus on monitoring our faith walk with God, especially in how we practice forgiveness.

When considering who we are in Christ, our faith should always be in action. Monitoring our faith in our walk with God means observing how willing we are to forgive others. Our ability to forgive reflects the status of our relationship with God.

Colossians 3:12–13 (MSG)

12 So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline.

13 Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you.

Lesson: By forgiving those who have hurt us, we better understand our walk with God. Daily tests of our faith reveal our trust in God.
