A Forgiving Spirit

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:31-32

“On the preparation day … all differences between brethren, whether in the family or in the church, should be put away. Let all bitterness and wrath and malice be expelled from the soul.”

—Counsels for the Church, p. 263

Sabbath Tip
As Christians, we’re called to have a forgiving spirit every day, but especially as we prepare for the Sabbath hours. Letting go of resentment frees us to focus on what’s most important: strengthening our relationship with God and with others. Is there someone in your life that you need to forgive before the next Sabbath?
