Say You're Sorry

Ever feel like you spend half your life apologizing to people? Sometimes I feel that way. If I'm not apologizing for something stupid I've done or said, it's for something stupid someone associated with me has done or said! At work, at church, out with friends...whatever...things happen. People are people, and they make mistakes. That means me, and that means you--we're going to put ourselves in situations that require apologies. And we'll be in situations where we'll be owed apologies. Either way, we have to learn to show forth another trait of God: grace. It really doesn't matter if you're apologizing or recieving an apology (and if we're honest, we owe many more than we are owed,) you have to learn to be gracious and honest and humble. We're all human, we'll always be human, and we'll always stumble over ourselves. It's a part of life, so you better get used to it. The hard part is learning to be gracious enough to deem the other greater than ourselves. Once that's done, apologies are easy! :)
