As much as we want to be people who live un-offended the reality of life and humanity is we will all get offended. Offense comes in a variety of packages but hurts the most when it comes from someone we love and someone who loves us. Jesus says a divided house cannot stand. Offense is a tactic of the enemy but his real mission is to divide the relationships you hold so near to your heart. The call for us is to not excuse the offense but forgive it. To put it in its proper place by remembering what we’ve been forgiven of. Forgiveness for every offense that comes against us is not radical but it is reasonable after experiencing the loving forgiveness of Jesus.
