Righting Wrongs

"If your brother wrongs you, go and show him his fault, between you and him privately.  If he listens to you, you have won back your brother." -Matthew 18:15 (AMP)
Whether at work, at home, or in church, we may encounter people that may say or do things that hurt us.  When we experience those times, it is up to each of us to decide how we respond to those that hurt us.  Jesus reminds us how we should act in these situations.

Jesus' advice is that we deal with others directly and lovingly.  While we may try to deal with our hurt by avoiding others, acting like it doesn't matter, or talking about it behind another person's back, we should take our concerns directly to the person that hurt us. Starting with a private conversation, we can approach the person with love and sincerity, hoping to right the wrong and regain a friend!

Hurt by someone?  Deal with it in a direct and loving way to right the wrong and regain a friend!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for always loving me and being willing to forgive me.  Help me to deal with others directly and lovingly so that healing and friendships are the end results.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
