Tripping Over Nothing

…Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble...
— 1 JOHN 2:9 - 11 (NIV)

Hatred and grudges can cause you to miss blessings Christ intended for you. There’s plenty of instances Jesus tells us to love, forgive, and help one another. When you do any of these things, God shows you the next thing He wants you to do.

If you don’t love your brother or sister, scripture says you’re blinded by darkness, but when you love your brother or sister you’ll live in the light and there will be nothing in you to make you stumble. So, if you’re going through life wondering why things aren’t going your way, it may be because you’re tripping over nothing. Ask God to remove your stony heart and replace it with one of flesh. Forgive those who have wronged you and show them Christ’s love. Remove the darkness from your life by doing as Christ has taught you. Go towards the light and love your brother and sister.

Heavenly Father, I choose to live in Your light by loving my brother and sister. If I have an ought with anyone, I will go to them with a forgiving heart and remove any blinding darkness that would cause me to stumble or miss Your blessing. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

This is my prayer
