Day 5! Being in constant conversation with God is important. Yes we need to have a specific time when we meet Him, but after that we must keep talking with Him all day. That's what today's devo is all about.

I am currently reading a book on radical forgiveness. The author talks about various people who forgave the unthinkable. He compares it to Christ and His forgiveness. The book reveals that often when we are offended we think "there are only 2 options payment or punishment, but Christ offers a different option pardon." As Christians, we are to be like Christ. Lord help me to release those who attack me and suffer the loss myself, pardoning them of there sin against me. We cannot use the excuse, "well that was Jesus" because Stephen did the same thing as He was being stoned. I want to be more like Jesus.
Day 4! Today we focus on forgiveness in prayer. Emotions are strong things and can drive us and control our lives. If we are not careful they will control us, but Jesus is our Lord. Let's release the to Him!

SUBMISSION!
To me this is a hard word for us. We want what we want, but we must submit our will to God's. I know the area were I wrestle with this the most is my time. I go and go and then want "my" time, but it cannot be that way. I belong to Christ and He is my Lord, therefore, I must give him whatever time He asks of me. I continue to pray about this so that I can learn and grow.
What are areas you wrestle with when it comes to submission?

I think submitting or I could say surrendering things that I have no reason to hang onto when I know God is the who takes care of it all for me when Iām completely surrendered to HIS will. Thatās one of my prayers is to have a completely surrendered life unto my savior and Lord of my life. I want Him to be Lord of ALL things. I think a lot of times we think weāve surrendered everything but in all reality there is possibly things we try to take care of ourselves and tell God āI got this oneā I desire for that to be of the past in my life!! #completesurrendertomyking!
Day 2 is here! You can find the link to the devo on our home page or click this link below. Let's enjoy our time with God today!

As I meditated on forgiveness today I kept getting the impression of āactionā that can only be produced through love, and that love first starts with the love Jesus has for us. When we realize how much He paid because of love we are able to love and forgive others also. Something that has really been stirring in my Spirit these past days is āIf a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?ā āā1 Johnā¬ ā4ā¬:ā20ā¬ āKJVā¬ā¬ Iām not trying to shift the focus away from forgiveness, but I believe without love it impossible to forgive, especially those who donāt believe theyāve done anything that requires forgiveness. In addition, love is a choice which also makes forgiveness a choice. The last thought that has been running through my mind is, if we are truly fixed on Jesus, offense and hurt become irrelevant. While this is a very challenging task, we are instructed to always look at Jesus. āTherefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside Godās throne.ā āāHebrewsā¬ ā12ā¬:ā1ā¬-ā2ā¬ āNLTā¬ā¬
