Saying Sorry...

"And they spat on Him, and took the reed and began to beat Him on the head. After they had mocked Him, they took the scarlet robe off Him and put His own garments back on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him."

So many people believe that true love means never having to say you are sorry. I feel absolutely terrible for people (especially women) who truly believe this statement. True LOVE demands that we say we are sorry when we are wrong...and sometimes even we are not. How else can our relationships be restored in a time of conflict or struggle? The power of the words "I'm Sorry" have held marriages, friendships, and even churches together. People everyday are ruining their lives due to self pride and not having the ability to say I'm sorry.

To say we are sorry is a sacrifice to our own self pride. Jesus gave the ultimate sacrifice when he shed his blood on Calvary. He gave eternal life with Him in Heaven to those who just believe. Do not estrange yourself from having a relationship with someone over two little words. In the end, right and wrong do not matter, but how we treat others is the true test. We must stand strong in the Lord and not our Pride...especially in our marriages/relationships. God calls us to be the representation of his light. Do not hide behind your pride. Take a deep breath, shut your eyes, and take a leap of faith....say you are sorry to mend any relationship that may be hurting. Who knows....it may turn out to be the BEST decision you have ever made.
