OPPORTUNITY! You have been wronged.

OPPORTUNITY

What happened to you was not right.
It does matter.
The person who did this to you deserves punishment.
In short, you truly have been wronged.

Because you truly have been wronged,
You truly have an opportunity to make a choice.
You can choose to seek human justice
OR
you can choose to seek love.

By choosing to seek love,
you can use being wronged as
your opportunity to change into
a person who is more like God;
your opportunity to change into
a person who is happy even when being wronged.

THE LIFE OF GOD
Consider the life of God.
Every day, things are done to God that are not right.
They do matter.
The people who do bad things to God deserve punishment.
Every day God truly is wronged. Yet …

God is happy while being wronged because
God also has children like you who choose to love and seek Him.
We can be happy while being wronged because we also have God.

WHAT MATTERS MOST?
On the one hand – injustices are not right.
On the other hand – God gave you life as a gift.
On the one hand – injustices do matter.
On the other hand – Jesus suffered and died for you.
On the one hand – The unjust deserve punishment.
On the other hand – The Holy Spirit dwells forever within you.
On the one hand – you have been wronged.
On the other hand – Eye has not seen, ear has not heard,
what God has ready for those who love Him.

IS GOD’S LOVE ENOUGH?
Is God’s love enough for you to be happy
even though you have been wronged?
This is important because
Heaven, participating in the life of God,
includes experiencing the many ways
many of God’s children wrong Him every day.
If we cannot be happy while being wronged,
we will not allow ourselves to
accept God’s invitation to participate in the life of God.
If we cannot be happy while being wronged,
we will keep ourselves out of Heaven.

Decide whether all the wonderful things God does for you
are more important or less important than the wrongs people do to you.
Decide whether you can be happy in God
even though you are wronged in this life.
