Who is our master?

I follow Christian pastor and writer Benjamin Cremer, and he asked a question today which goes right to the heart of my Christian faith, and which I think about constantly when I think about putting my faith in action.

Who does this serve?

Living in the light

 I read a line from Pastor Joseph Yoo that has really stuck with me while I pondered Psalm 121 the last few days.  

Withholding forgiveness is like drinking rat poison and expecting the other person to die.

Wow.  What a vivid word picture that gives me of the corrosive nature of holding resentment.

Psalm 121 gives me the other side of the story:

I lift up my eyes to the hills—
    from where will my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
    who made heaven and earth.
