Offense
A brother wronged is more unyielding than a fortified city; disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel.
Proverbs 18:19
A dear brother mentioned yesterday an idea I first heard 30 years ago as a young person from a year surrounded by powerful ministry in the midst of great challenges. Tithing prayer. Brother Bill would tithe his day in prayer spending over two hours each day in concentrated prayer.
Reflecting on a relationship with a different brother now so offended that no word can pass without great offense rising. It is as with a wound so festered that the minutest touch causes immediate oozing and outbursts of volatile anger.
This reminder from this other dear brother yesterday is of the necessity of prayer and action and seasons of no other words for any so offended.
God have mercy on me and grant that I may walk in your favor and have peace on earth, good will toward men.
