Proverbs 10:12 (NIV)

Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.
– Proverbs 10:12 (NIV)
Today’s commentary
by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org
When we are wronged the first reaction can be a desire for revenge—to make the offender pay for the pain they have inflicted upon us. But that only creates more pain and hatred in an ever-increasing circle. Godly love is willing to pay the emotional payment for the wrong done. It is not easy, but in the long run, only love can cover over the deeds and heal the heart.
