Sermon on the Mount - Day 9
Matthew 5:11–12 — Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven
What is a healthy habit that helps you "let go" of harsh words instead of replaying them in your mind all day?
For me, I'm working on building the habit of telling myself: 'It’s ok to have differences of opinion, I forgive you, and I pray that God will guide you.' I'm not fully there yet, but it's the posture I'm striving for!

For me, prayer helps the most. It creates space to release the hurt, calm the mind, and choose not to let someone else’s words control the rest of the day.

Letting go of harsh words is a daily grace practice, and choosing forgiveness, prayer, and a Christ-centered posture helps keep the heart free from bitterness.
