While teaching my 1st grade the Lord’s Prayer this past Thursday, I said something about forgiveness that surprised me.
‘You know you have forgiven, let go of the offense, when you see the person, not the wrong they committed.’
I think this is wisdom, and explains why Jesus was always concerned with blindness. The way to see the Kingdom of Heaven at hand is to see His creation (in its original intent) first, not the problems, offenses or inconveniences.
The log in my eye is the offense I have held on to. I must see past that to see rightly and share His truth rightly.
Lord, open my eyes. Forgive me for seeing through glasses of offense and inconvenience. Help me see.
