Happiness is being grudge-free!

Daily writing prompt
Are you holding a grudge? About?

I’ve learned that a grudge can nudge people into anger, hatred, and despair. Still, some folks savor a grudge like a chocolate lover eating fudge. No matter how much pain their grudge causes them, they won’t budge an inch away from it.

Like most people, I could find many reasons to refuse to forgive but I don’t want to have to trudge through the sludge and drudge of holding a grudge. A grudge would put too big of a smudge on my heart and would cause me to harshly judge those who have wounded me.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
