Credits In The Bank Of The Soul
Credits In The Bank of the Soul
“I know I’m wrong, but I won’t apologize to that pompous man!” “I’m always the first one to make a peace offering. It’s her turn!” “I’ve suffered plenty! I don’t have to try harder. I’ve done enough!”
We speak of reconciliation, but are we waiting for the honest one to come to us? We believe we have the right to reprove or chastise another for their bad actions, but do we refuse to hear a word about our own? Have we gone so far as to act as though we have been martyred in order to gain sympathy from others?
Regardless of what position we hold in life, president or the poor living on the corner, we are all subject to God’s just judgment. Be not willing to risk your life’s peace, spiritual fulfillment or let pass the fullness of the gift of Heaven for a grievance only you have the ability to resolve.
Treat every misunderstanding, offense blind or intentional, disagreement miniscule or grave just the same. Jesus offers the same gift of love, peace and forgiveness to every person no matter the size or type of our transgression.
With genuineness of heart express sincere remorse for wrongdoing, offer repentance to those you have offended, and make it your life’s work to unceasingly rekindle the light of peace for the sake of a world that is threatened by the darkness of our self righteous acts.
You have dominion over the daily debt of your acts. Redirect your spirit so that not even a penny is owed in your name. Live to net an abundance of spiritual balance, and when you can, leave the blessing of human credits for others to invest and build in the piggy bank of their own accessible souls.
Matthew 5:20-26
For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. "You have heard that it was said to those of ancient times, 'You shall not murder'; and 'whoever murders shall be liable to judgment.' But I say to you that if you are angry with a brother or sister, you will be liable to judgment; and if you insult a brother or sister, you will be liable to the council; and if you say, 'You fool,' you will be liable to the hell of fire. So when you are offering your gift at the altar, if you remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother or sister, and then come and offer your gift. Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are on the way to court with him, or your accuser may hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you will be thrown into prison. Truly I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny".
