We live in a world that has seemingly normalized and legitimized being offended. At some point, we all feel the pressure to say one thing or not say another, and if we, somehow, fail to comply then an offended party is soon to follow. Do you know what I mean? Sure, real sins lead to real offense, and we deal with that specifically and directly as the Bible teaches. However, what about our perceptions, expectations, and even interpretations of what is going on around us? Jesus is not only the payment for our sins, but He is also the pattern for our life. And as we can see from Scripture He was not easily offended, nor did He carry offenses. Therefore, to be free from an offended heart means that we choose a Christlike response in the way we act, interact, and react to people and situations of life.
