Aren't you glad God does not have butt love for you? You know the type of love most of us have for each other. I love this person, butt... This could be filled in with the down right petty to the extremely egregious. Bottom line God says in his word Isaiah 43:25 I, even I, am He Who blots out and cancels your transgressions, for My own sake, and I will not remember your sins. The wisdom in this passage is not the forgiveness of our sins, the wisdom comes from seeing that unconditional love is for our benefit not the ones we love. You see we carry the butt baggage. The conditions we hold upon others are held by us not them. Those tend to add up and stay with us, then like a wound they eventually scar over which stays with us. The good news is we don't have to go to a plastic surgeon to remove the scars we can remove them ourselves. If we know and believe how much God loves us we can give these butts to God and know he will remove them from our lives, 1 Corinthians 2:12 We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
After all this is over, all that will really have mattered is how we treated each other.
