Grace, isn't it a wonderful thing?
I've begun a process of apologies lately.. I have a list, kind of like the Earl guy on the t.v. show (and no that's not where the idea came from lol.)
Talk about the weight on my shoulders getting lighter and lighter..
I can't get into them here, but I will say this. The process is just amazing. The people I most dreaded going to are the ones who have shown me the most grace. One was a previous employer. I had a better chance getting a job working for NASA designing satellites than I did working for him again.. well not only was I forgiven, but given a job back. Grace, in action.
Made an amends this previous weekend to a high school girlfriend.. from like 14 years ago.. had to confess some things I did.. though it confused her why after all this time it mattered, the apology was accepted and I felt much better.
Also this previous weekend, I made amends with two great friends whom I went through a lot with.... that was a complicated one and I hadn't seen them in a few years. Apologies accepted, and I felt it. I felt it in my heart and the weight on my shoulders got a little lighter once again.
God is just so awesome.
