Apologizing and Forgiving

February 11, 2019

TRANSCRIPT

Apologizing is when you have made a mistake or shown poor judgment or offended someone. You either have been told or you have recognized this. An apology is when you're acknowledging what it is that you did. It's not simply saying I'm sorry.

It's saying what it is that you're apologizing for. Forgiving. When someone else has made a mistake or someone else has hurt you or shown poor judgment or offended you and they apologize, quickly forgive them. Graciously forgive them.

And even if they don't apologize you can forgive.

There are people or circumstances in our lives that we will never be able to talk to the other person or never see them again. They might actually not even be on this earth anymore and the ability to forgive them or to apologize is still important.
