The Mission of Reconciliation

Jesus says in Matthew 5:21-24. if we are offering our gift to him and there remember that our brother or sister has something against us, we are to leave our gift and be reconciled to them, then come and offer our gift. Reconciliation is important to God. He wants us to be reconciled to Him and to each other. Jesus has paved the way for our reconciliation with God. We have a responsibility to work towards reconciliation at both the individual and collective level. As a nation, reconciliation is in the mainstream of our social fabric because of the atrocities perpetrated against Indigenous peoples.Indigenous people stumble regarding the hope that is in Jesus Christ. They associate Jesus with the physical, verbal, emotional, sexual, racial, and spiritual abuse, and injustice they have endured through people who claimed to be Christians.  There is a great need for reconciliation. What might God be asking us to do about this reconciliation?
