Hatchet

She leaves me with the feeling that when we bury the hatchet, she’ll mark the exact spot.

The problem lies in forgetting the slights of life. These come from every angle, circumstance and individuals. Does the Bible address it? Glad you asked.

Matthew 7:1-29 

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye. …

Have the Healer bury that hatchet for you, so you won’t be digging it up again.  He desires that you know Him in that capacity.  His name is God.

Give it some thought.
