When is the best time to do something about the thoughts we have in our head. About the way we have treated others: have we been rude, insensitive, mean, vendictive, gossiped, cheated, lied, hurt them physically, emotionally, or sexually? Have we been distant, uncaring, avoiding, slandering, plotting against them, hoping for their downfall, stolen from them, or gotten even, etc?
We may feel justified based on what they did to us as well, having a sense of accomplishment through revenge or just desserts served. Careful...the Bible says that we can't be forgiven if we can't forgive.
What we vengefully do to others may anger God more than what they did to us and God may choose their side to further punish us!! God says forgive and that judgement is His business, not ours. So the time to correct this thinking is now, before we get into it so deep that we can't get out!!
