Wisdom and Glory
A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense.~Proverbs 19:11
Patience seems to be key in many things. Patience to wait before you speak, to calm down before you act, to observe before you leave... How many things do we miss out on or regret because we weren't patient? It is truly wisdom that helps us to know when, how, and why to be patient.
I think in overlooking an offense, the wise aren't allowing emotions to distract them from seeing a truer issue. Whether it be someone who needs prayer(offender or not) for a situation, health concern, addiction, finances or any other stronghold. We must remember that ultimately our lives are for the glory and building of God's heavenly kingdom. No offence should be allowed to get in the way of our doing His work.
