"Love keep no record of wrong"

If you truly love someone you'll never keep a grudge, Irregardless of the evil or harm done. Through the heart of love you'll be quick to forgive. Most of the time the pain is so severe it's hard to let most of it go, the wound is hard to heal only God knows, but the only method for this you see is to forgive. When you relieve yourself (your heart) from the bondage of anger, pain and hate, that's when the recovery began and you don't have to wonder whether it's right or wrong. Within your heart you will know that this is the right thing that you have done.
Love therefore is longsuffering and kind, it harbours no evil nor has no envy, it vaunteth not itself neither is love puffed up. Love never usually misbehave unseemly, seek not her own, nor is she easily provoked. The truth must proceed through the heart and speak of things that are pure. Love bears, believes, hope, and endures all things, and refuses to fail. In the eyes of love, we see the demonstration of love through Jesus Christ for humanity. It is because of love, the true love of God that we have another chance of life. We too can also give another chance for one to prove that love can be better the second time around. The suffering, the pain and the hurt we carry along because of wrong doing will never cease, give up oneself and look towards Jesus, who bears it all.
If Jesus can forgive then why can't we, He did nothing wrong but had still paid the price for our sins."The look of love is always on his face, he knew you yet he still loved you". If you can except the love of God, the only record of you that will be kept is the record of your name in the lamb's book of life!

Things to be aware of!

Beleive it or not, we are living in the last days! The signs of the time that has been written in the Holy Bible is coming to pass. The signs that I see in these days has strengthen my belief and is allowing me to become even more aware of my eternal salvation.
The book of Matthew speaks the signs of the times. Matthew 24:6 Jesus said, And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye not be troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom(individual and world wars): and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in diverse places. 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 24:23 then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is christ, or there; beleive it not. (that will be the anti-christ).24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 24:42 Watch therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
All these signs shall come to passed, but don't be afraid, just hold on to your faith and prepare yourself for the coming of the Lord.

When things go wrong

One measure of our spiritual maturity is the way we respond when things go wrong. If we give in to despair, doubt God's existence, or strike out at some innocent person, we have some growing up to do.
Explorer Samuel Hearne (1745-1792) was on an expedition in northern Canada when a crucial piece of charting equipment broke. So he had to turn back. Then, theives stole most of his supplies. Hearne responded in an unexpected way. In his journal he wrote, "As the ravagers had materially lightened my load... this part of the journey was the easiest and most pleasant of any I had experienced since my leaving the forest."
Back in the first century, as the apostle Paul traveled from town to town proclaiming the Gospel, he faced opposition and desperate situations. Time and time again he found help and hope by turning to the Lord.
How about you? How did you respond the last time something went wrong? Did you fall apart? If so, you need to ask God for patience and a positive perspective to handle life's setbacks in a mature christian way (James 1:2-5). When things go wrong, ask God for stregnth and wisdom. Then thank Him for working to increase your faith.

shot prayer: Oh, give me a grateful heart, a heart that's tried and true. So that when troubles and trials come, I'll still be praising you.
