Psalm 60

Ever notice that the stuff that hurts the worst is when people you trust betray you. It cuts so much deeper. It's the worst feeling in the world when someone that you care about acts as if they don't care about you. JM

Matthew 5:21-26

Relationships are so important. Especially the power of friendship. Verse 25 talks about how you should become friends with your enemies if they are trying to do things against you legally. I know that's kind of a stretch, but I think what's cool to think about is the leniency that come with being someone's friend. Kind of an allusion to what God did for me. Because I'm God's friend, I don't have to stand trial and be condemned for everything that I owe. I can just point to my friendship with God and let that carry me through. It's the magic blanket of friendship that covers over grievances.
Kind of fun to think about. Thank you Jesus. JM
