Reconciliation: Our Great Need & Main Purpose

Reconciliation

We are all programmed to desire reconciliation and to grieve brokenness. When we have reconciliation, all feels right with the world. And when we don’t, what we are thirsty for is a long, cool drink of peace.  This page is dedicated to finding peace with God and the people He has put into our lives.

ReconciliationDefinition

Reconciliation is about restoring broken relationships, opposites being made compatible/matching up, and bringing harmony and making differences consistent with one another. This sounds wonderfully impossible. And it is. Impossible…without the Lord.

Rom 5.1

The Stories

Here on the blog, I have written quite a bit about peace in relationships, or the lack of it. These stories come from my life. I am always looking to see God’s Word at work in my life.

A Family After God’s Own Heart
Forgiveness & Reconciliation Part 1

Forgiveness & Reconciliation Part 2
Forgiveness & Reconciliation Part 3

Turn the Other Cheek?????
When Is Saying Sorry Enough?
God’s Word Wins…Hearts
Family Wisdom. Proverbs 3:3-4

The Book

God planted the Gospel Story deeply in our hearts. We want problems fixed. We look for the hero. We desire forgiveness and mended relationships. When we don’t experience this in movies, books, or real life, we tend to feel a lack of closure because it is in our spiritual DNA to crave reconciliation. Especially in real life, we don’t like loose ends. When we study the Parable of the Prodigal Son, we see the Gospel Story—repentance and redemption…the path of peace. Read more in these posts:
