Devotionals
Grumpy old men were main characters in a movie and some found their antics amusing. I viewed parts of the flick while visiting family and many tune-out factors raised red flags. I can’t help but wonder how often cantankerous Christians cause the lost to tune-out truth of transformation.
Jesus transforms lives, forgives sin, restores our broken relationship with the Father and reserves a place for us in heaven. Cantankerous Christians become carriers of kindness and joy. They cast aside the cloak of contention and don coverings of compassion. People no longer tune-out their messages; instead, they tune-in and turn up the volume.
“And so, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience: bearing with one another and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against any other just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you (Colossians 3: 12-13 NAS).” Cantankerous Christians? God forbid!
