Thank you for God is good! This month a group of my co-worker are studying about offensive and being offended. As we go through this work week. We are asking God to cross us over to other side of peace, joy and love this week. Because we wanted God’s best for our life. God blessed you for writing this article.

Wow! This writing as well as the posts are wonderful. They have confirmed a discussion I had just yesterday with a sister in Christ. Praise God for all he does and how he is there for us at every turn with exactly what we need. I am so glad to be his child! What an awesome God we serve.

Thank you. The idea of “offense” keeps coming back to me this week. I’m still amazed how God does these intensives in an area where I am lacking. Being easily offended has been a family pattern and an individual choice for me. I am genuinely sorry for how much time I have wasted being offended over the most trivial things. I think this had to do with self-esteem issues, but to be honest, if I am not finding myself in Christ, won’t I always be lacking self-esteem? I’m thinking that the easily-offended thing was a tell-tale of a larger issues of not being grounded as I needed to be in the love and work of the Trinity. Thank you, Lord, for setting my feet in high places!

Thankyou.Jesus said that many would be offended because of Me…Many times offenses come because of yes ,even pastors,co-workers,other believers,family members,the economy and the list could go on…That’s why many times in the word God encourges us to “Be encouraged,Be of good cheer,Be strong and of good courage..For I have overcome the world.Galatians 6:9 says ..to be not weary in well doing for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.
Be of strong heart my beloved…we can’t get any lower than that Jesus has not already been.Be blessed my friend. Brother Steve

Hi, thanks for this post. I’m really encouraged and at the same time reminded to never look or magnify the “storms of life”, rather, magnify God and His grace more each day.
My wife and I are also facing our own “storm” the past days, but yesterday, I was just remin ded again by the Lord about a verse in 2 Corinthians that says, For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary but what is unseen is eternal.”
God bless!
