RIGHT OR LIGHT?

Today we’re going to dive into a topic that will apply to every single person sitting down for this study. Why? Because we live in a broken world with broken people that will give us plenty of opportunities to exercise the way of forgiveness. As we will see from our study this week, God doesn’t want His people holding grudges because when we do, it prohibits our light from shining bright. In life, we will often have to choose between being right or being light. My prayer is that we choose the later!

Today’s passage is small, but packs a powerful punch of truth! Let’s learn from two ladies who were strong, infuential, and worked closely with the Apostle Paul, but as we will learn they, unfortunately, chose right instead of light.

Philippians 4:2-3 (MSG)

I urge Euodia and Syntyche to iron out their diferences and make up. God doesn’t want His children holding grudges. And, oh, yes, Syzygus, since you’re right there to help them work things out, do your best with them. Tese women worked for the Message hand in hand with Clement and me, and with the other veterans—worked as hard as any of us.
