Yep I said it-to the one who will read on a little further you are sooo darn sorry! Well, my hope and prayer is that you are and that you say you are often!
Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.” (Luke 17:3-4)
Let’s be clear-repentance is witnessed by sincere and deep remorse and/or regret. In evaluating this, “actions speaking louder than words” and “lip service” must be intensely discerned.
Much like the weather changes quickly from hot to cold, we must be quick to say I’m sorry. I encourage you not to waste a lot of time trying to assess who did what. After all, an apology doesn’t condemn a person as being wrong or uplift another as being right. It rather indicates that the relationship is more valuable than the egos of those involved.
I hope and pray that you will always be so very sorry!
