50 Day Journey of Joy – Be Reconciled

Week 6 Sunday, March 21st, 2021

Read Matthew 5:23-26 NLT

23 “So if you are presenting a sacrifice at the altar in the Temple and you suddenly remember that someone has something against you,
24 leave your sacrifice there at the altar. Go and be reconciled to that person. Then come and offer your sacrifice to God.
25 “When you are on the way to court with your adversary, settle your differences quickly. Otherwise, your accuser may hand you over to the judge, who will hand you over to an officer, and you will be thrown into prison.
26 And if that happens, you surely won’t be free again until you have paid the last penny.

Questions for Meditation

  1. What did Jesus tell us about maintaining peaceful relationships with others?
  2. Are there any current situations that this brings to your mind that you need to address?

Pray

Tell the Lord you want to obey Him and ask Him to help you live the way that He explains in this passage.  Ask Him to guide you to make peace with others where there has been disagreement and hurt.  Thank Him for being with you.
