Daily Gratitude Year 7-Day 161: Today, I am grateful for chosen pieces. This quote struck me this morning:
"Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind." -Unknown
Our perpetuation to repeat the same mistakes over and over is so very human. We want what we want. We want to achieve that end, without always considering the cost. Sometimes, it is important to consider if saying what we think is truly worth the price to our souls... or someone else's.
I had a verse picked out, went to retrieve it and this was my verse of the day:
"bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive." -Colossians 3:13
No coincidence here. Just a Father offering his suggestion from His Word. Forgiveness leads to peace. It benefits both parties involved and pleases the Father. Let it go and be free of the burden. Here was the verse I was seeking to share:
"Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins." -1 Peter 4:8
Keep on loving each other earnestly... with humility and sincerity. Keep that piece of your mind and choose peace today. If you need to let something out... let it be a piece of your heart. The world needs all the love we can pour into it.
Today, I am grateful for chosen pieces.
