Victoria Osteen - Protect Your Heart from Offense

Proverbs 17:9 says, “He who covers and forgives an offense seeks love.” You have to cover that offense. You have to forgive. It doesn’t belong to you. It didn’t originate with you. That offense came from that situation. It belongs to that person. It is not yours unless you take it in. It is only yours to forgive and to cover. The Scripture doesn’t say that offenses won’t come, but it tells us how to deal with an offense—cover it and forgive. The choice is ours. We can either seek and go after love or we can go after the offense.

I live in a small town. Wicked people have been lying about me; twisting my kindness into embarrassing accusations. Thank you, Victoria, for reminding and instructing me how to handle this....my identity is in Jesus (not my reputation) and prayer will be my only defense.

[racheleisenmanmcneal]

Lord I forgive. Cause I know your love for me has greater thing in life to do for you and that you love me enough to forgive and let go of the past and to move into my future serving you Jesus . I forgive I walk in love I walk in faith I walk in wisdom I walk humbled in Jesus name amen.

I am so deeply blessed by this today. I have found myself being on edge and taking offense far too much lately, especially with those who love me the MOST. I am purposing to not just get back to the OLD me but to be a BETTER me starting right now.
