Who wants to live with yesterday’s rubble?
Who wants to hoard the trash of the past?
You don’t, do you?
Or do you?
I’m not talking about the trash in your house, but in your heart.
Not the junk of papers and boxes but the remnants of anger and hurt.
Do you rat-pack your pain?
Amass offenses?
Record slights?
A tour of your heart might be telling.
A pile of rejections.
Accumulated insults.
No one can blame you.
They’re innocence takers, promise breakers, and wound makers.
They’re everywhere and you’ve had your share.
Jesus answered Peter’s question in Matthew 18:21 and 22 when he asked: “Lord, how often should I forgive someone who sins against me? Seven times?” “No, not seven times,” Jesus said. “Seventy times seven!”
Do you want to give every day a chance?
Jesus says to get rid of the trash.
Give the grace you’ve been given!
