I have to resist the urge to get them back somehow - but the truth is no one is deserving of grace and we are to give it to everyone - as God does to us. God gives us what we don't deserve - it isn't about deserving it is about loving others as God loves us - freely. and when we offend others - others may not give us grace but God does because in Christ sacrifice covers everything everytime - and it is He who has the final judgment. Rachel love the openness and honesty . . . when people offend or hurt us it is a tough thing . . . I have to resist the urge to get them back somehow – but the truth is no one is deserving of grace and we are to give it to everyone – as God does to us. God gives us what we don’t deserve – it isn’t about deserving it is about loving others as God loves us – freely.

and when we offend others – others may not give us grace but God does because in Christ sacrifice covers everything everytime – and it is He who has the final judgment.

It means a lot that you cared enough to think it over and come back to say the words, "I'm sorry." And don't beat yourself up over it, whatever it was.. you're only human!
