“Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!” Psalm‬ ‭115‬:‭1‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“You are my God, and I will give thanks to you; you are my God; I will extol you. Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!” Psalm‬ ‭118‬:‭28‬-‭29‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice! Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually! Remember the wondrous works that he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he uttered, O offspring of Abraham, his servant, children of Jacob, his chosen ones!”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭105‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

What is the condition of your heart?

“And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.” (Ezekiel‬ ‭11‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

Still stone?
Abide in Him through soaking in His word daily and He will change you…
for you cannot change yourself.

Being unforgiving and/or bitter are sure symptoms.
Moralism is not the answer.

Fourteen years ago Németh Laci, his dad, and I took a journey to the location of a largely forgotten massacre. I made a video from that journey. If you can spare 15 minutes, look back with me to Srebrenica.
