Asking Forgiveness

I'm not at peace with myself today.

I handled a situation a little harshly and now I'm having to "fix" it. Like it can be fixed. Saying "I'm sorry" just won't cut it. But, it's all I can do.

Admittedly, there is fault on both parts. Both of us agree on that. I just feel like that by trying to be the one who admits fault first and apologize, this means that I'm the only one in the wrong. And that just isn't the case. But having dealt with this other party before, I know what's coming.

I hate this feeling.

God is so gracious.

I called the other person involved and they showed so much kindness. Kindness I didn't expect, and probably didn't deserve. God was so right when He says to humble yourself, ask forgiveness, and try reconciliation.

This feeling, I love.
