There is a 100+ acre piece of dirt behind my house. People drive north to south over it instead of going around on the paved road. After enough use, a hard pathway has been created that makes it easy to walk over it. However, the farmer will, when it comes time to plant seeds, plow that field effectively erasing the dirt road.
As I was walking on this path, the Lord showed me that it’s a powerful picture of forgiveness. Every one of us has experienced various hurts caused by people driving over our lives. After a while, we become hardened soil that can’t allow the seeds of God’s truth to penetrate our hearts and draw us closer to Jesus.
Forgiveness is that plowed field. It allows the Spirit to plant powerful life-changing seeds into your life. Don’t let those who’ve driven over your life dictate how close you get to Jesus – the source of all life’s good stuff! Choose today to forgive in Jesus name those who have hurt you.
I show you how to forgive God’s way in my book, More Than a Sunday Faith (chapter 13). I’ll send you a free copy if you can’t afford it. Seeing your life made whole is that important to me.
