First Pure, then Peaceable, Gentle, Willing to Yield, Full of Mercy and Good Fruits.


What's the difference between blessing and cursing, accusing and excusing?  Choosing to Sin or Serve Him.

God in the heat of misunderstanding, thank You for steadying me. Thank You for seeing us through, loving both the accused and the accuser, offering both equal opportunity to forgive, be forgiven and to serve You with Jesus as our example. Thank You for choice!  Please continue to make us like Jesus. Thank You. Amen.

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.  James 3:17

Staying in the James 3:17 place, even when accused of unintended wrong doing, is a real test of remaining pure, peaceable, gentle, willing to yield and full of mercy……It is necessary to do, in order to end the conflict and set the state for reconciliation. It is necessary to do, to be like Jesus, remembering He was completely innocent and wrongly accused, and did not sin even then. Breaks in fellowship between believers are always first a breach with God. We need to reconcile.

Jesus does the Repairing. We can trust He will do this, as He does all things well.  We need Him so much.

Thank You Jesus for being the Repairer of the Breach. Amen.
