Verse of the DayLove prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends.--- Proverbs 17:9 NLTThis proverb is saying that we should be willing to disregard the faults of others. Forgiving faults is necessary to any relationship. It is tempting, especially in an argument, to bring up all the mistakes the other person has ever made. Love, however, keeps its mouth shut---difficult though that may be. Try never to bring anything into an argument that is unrelated to the topic being discussed. As we grow to be like Christ, we will acquire God’s ability to forget the confessed sins of the past.--- Life Application Study Bible notes
