Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series, keys to loving your journey.

In John 1010, Jesus tells us that he came and died for us so that we can have and enjoy our life to the fullest until it overflows.

So life is a journey journey and we only get one

chance to live it. Why then should we choose to make it through, just endure, or worse,

hate the life we're living? Today, Joyce will share how through following the Holy Spirit,

we can learn to love every step of the journey with him. Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching.

We're going to look at two scriptures on the problem with not forgiving people.

I think it's just something we need to do this morning.

I didn't even have these scriptures in this message until I got here in this city,

but I just feel like we need to be reminded again that this is not just

something that we can do or not do, depending on how we feel. If we want our relationship with God

to be right, we cannot stay mad at people.

We just can't. And I'll tell you something, the quick, when somebody hurts your feelings, which happens

all the time, it happens to me too.

When somebody hurts your feelings, or they treat you unjustly or unkindly, or unfairly,

the longer you stay angry, the harder it is to get over it.

Now let me say it again.

The longer you stay angry, the harder it is to get over it.

The quicker you forgive, the easier it is to do.

The Bible says be quick to forgive.

Quick to forgive.
