January 11 - Forgiving Wisdom.

Proverbs 19:11
“The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.”
 
Wisdom empowers the longsuffering of our actions while also enabling us to have a forgiving spirit toward those who have wronged us.
 
Ephesians 4:31-32
“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.”
 
God forgave us for our sins the moment we placed our faith in the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for us; and in doing so, made it possible for us to also have the power to forgive one another.
 
Romans 12:20-21
“Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”
 
Make the choice today to put away the wrong doing of others, and allow the Wisdom that God has given to shine through you.
 
Ecclesiastes 8:1
“Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.”
