Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
What of Today’s Verse…
How can I not forgive a brother for whom Christ died, when I know what God paid to forgive me?
Let us Pray:
Holy Father, I commit today to release any grudge or bitterness that I have against one of your children. I am sorry for not reflecting your grace and mercy which you lavished on me. But Abba Father, I need the help of your Holy Spirit to relinquish my claim on the wrongs committed against me and to treat those who have hurt me as full siblings in your family. Empower me as I commit to follow your example in forgiving, even when it is hard. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.’

My Goals…
With a growing awareness of my divine nature, I set and accomplish my goals.
My aspirations in life are vital, and the tasks I have planned for the day, month, or year are important. They help me focus my energy in productive ways.
A work-related goal may help me get a raise or put me in line for a promotion. A goal related to school or home can affect my well-being. Achieving a goal also reminds me that I am capable and worthy of good.
Yet my greatest goal in life is to know God more and to express my divine nature in all that I do. Spiritual goals elevate my consciousness. I set aside a prayer time and meet the intention of spending that time in contemplation and meditation. Then I know the joy that increasing my awareness of God and of my own divine nature brings me.
“This one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God.”—Philippians 3:13-14
