CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Everyone received a little grace today. No one had to complete the three WODs outlined in the THA-THANG. The “punishment” was taken away, the full requirement of the workout was erased. Just like Jesus taking away the punishment of our sins and God declaring us justified through faith by his grace. By grace we are forgiven, by grace the burden is lifted.
We have been forgiven and we are to be examples to others by forgiving. Not always easy to do because of our human faults but, none the less, an expectation.
An incredible example of forgiveness and faith recently was demonstrated by Miranda Talley Reagan. She was the estranged wife of Jimmy Reagan and mother of 8 year old Clark. Tragically Jimmy murdered Clark before killing himself on June 15th.
On June 16th Miranda wrote a Facebook post. In it she demonstrated forgiveness and faith that few emulate. In the post she writes, “Compassion is the remedy for anger. This was mental illness. It’s heartbreaking this will be his legacy and that he was so tormented in his mind. We will never understand, but please don’t hate him.” She goes on to talk about the things that we tend to concern ourselves while raising children but she writes, “In the end, the grace of Jesus is all that matters.” She speaks of God’s sovereignty and how she believes He will make something beautiful come from this tragedy. She ends with this, “I could drown in thoughts of everything we will miss or all of the tiny parts of life he will take with him. But he’s not missing anything. This world has nothing to offer him in comparison to what he has now.”
Grace and forgiveness is something we all need and, more importantly, something we all need to give.
