Well I can give a praise report and let you know that the person I hurt by my actions accepted my apologize and has forgiven me. The weight has been lifted and I feel so much better. The truth is we are all going to say something or do something that may unintentionally hurt someone else but when it is brought to our attention then we are accountable. Meaning we are now aware of it therefore God demands that we make it right through asking for forgiveness. We must forgive others as God has and also ask for forgiveness when we have wronged another. I will tell you it is the best thing you can do and it is such a testimony for God on how to be. My husband and I are learning together how not to react so quickly on our emotions. It is the power of the Holy Spirit that will give all of us the calmness and goodness to overcome our negative emotions and I am slowly learning through prayer how to practice the art of being slow to anger. So we are all works in progress and I love that. God will deal with us as He needs to and I am happy to receive it. So I am truly content and at peace today for the gift of forgiveness is....priceless.
Matthew 6: 14-15
