What do dump trucks and teaspoons have in common? Forgiveness. In my mind, I picture God using a dump truck of grace as He forgives all of my sin, my bad choices, and attitudes. Then what do I do? I use a teaspoon to dish out forgiveness to others.
“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” Ephesians 4:32
The “just as” part gets me every time. God is so gracious and consistent with forgiving me. I want the same heart. And I want to use the same measuring cup to forgive as I receive from God. May kindness, compassion, and forgiveness be overflowing in our lives today…by the dump truck. – Sandi
