Reconciliation

Luke 12:57-59 
57 “Yes, and why, even of yourselves, do you not judge what is right? 58 When you go with your adversary to the magistrate, make every effort along the way to settle with him, lest he drag you to the judge, the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. 59 I tell you, you shall not depart from there till you have paid the very last mite.”

Not only do we fail to judge the times, we miss the judgment to come as we judge each other even in lawsuits instead of working out the problems with each other.  If we do this with each other, how much more do we need reconciliation with the God we have wronged?  Settling with our Father through His Son is the only way to avoid eternal imprisonment, and settling with each other is also needed for the kingdom.
