Leave The Past In The Past

 

As far as the east is from the west,

So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

Just as a father has compassion on His children,

So the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.

For He Himself knows our frame;

He is mindful that we are but dust.

Psalm 103:12-14

There are people who delight in digging up dirt regarding other people's lives, then broadcasting it to anyone who will listen.  They are not interesting in improving anything, only in destroying the lives of others.

Character assassins are not anyone's friends, because they are only interested in trying to make themselves look "good" at the expense of others.    

What does the Bible tell us?  It tells us that God has removed our transgressions and we are forgiven.  Therefore, should we not show this same mercy to others? 

So, the next time the gossip monger comes calling, cut them short.  Tell them you believe in forgetting and getting on with life.
