Late one night, a truck driver stopped at a truck stop for some dinner. Not long after the waitress sat down his food, three bikers came in and started to harass the driver. They ate his food, drank his coffee and said some rather nasty things about him. The driver, finally having enough, calmly stood, took his check to the register, paid his bill and left. The bikers scoffed and said, \u201cHe ain\u2019t much of a man, is he!\u201d The waitress smiled at the bikers and said, \u201cWell, I don\u2019t know about that, but he sure ain\u2019t much of a driver. Looks like he just ran over three bikes in the parking lot!\u201d Isn\u2019t this how the world looks at how to respond when we\u2019ve been wronged? We don\u2019t get mad, we get even. When our rights are violated, we are supposed to get angry and plot ways to get even. Yet, Jesus teaches us that as His followers, we are to walk a different road than seeking vengeance. The question is this \u2013 what are the consequences if we fail to walk this road? What happens if we don\u2019t forgive those who have wronged us? The answer might just surprise you. This Sunday we\u2019ll continue our look at what it means to \u201cPray Like Jesus\u201d as we take that first step on the path God has set before us. As we do, we\u2019ll see the vital link between our forgiveness of others and God\u2019s forgiveness for us. Can\u2019t wait to see you all there!
