If I cool off and pray over something, I find that so many slights or things I see as opportunities for confrontation or correction fall away under the warmth of grace.

They don’g have to impress me…or obey for me to receive them in love.

That is how Jesus sees me. I need to do the same.

Grace is all about tossing out your expectations of others so you can spend that energy on being loving and forgiving.

However, I also struggle with extending grace to those who hold a different opinion than I. I need to let go of some things. I need to learn to focus (and not compromise) on what is a fundamental/eternal/salvation issue, and let go of things that are simply opinion and allow them to be such.
