I'm sure some of you are familiar with Chris Brown's recent album, F.A.M.E. If you have been up to date with the popular music artist, you'd know how much hatred, ridicule, and judgement he has undergone recently in his career. But he has found himself through music, and gave one of the meanings to his album, "Forgiving All My Enemies."
Just like Brown, Pastor Mike has encouraged us to forgive our own enemies. In the recent sermon, "Manlaws", he talks about how forgiveness finds no fault. In Matthews 7:12 it states, "Do for others what you want them to do for you: this is the meaning of the Law of Moses and of the teachings of the prophets." Treat others how you would like to be treated. If you want to be loved, LOVE. If you want to be blessed, BE a blessing.
If you have ever been in or had a relationship with someone where they have broken your heart, or cheated, or lied to you, try not to have hatred towards them. Remember, God has a plan, and makes everything happen for a reason. You have to be DOWN, to appreciate UP. Don't block your blessing with hatred and regret, because that will stop the next person from being everything the previous person wasn't.
