I Did What?

We are always hurting each other. Sometimes it is intentional and sometimes it is not. But we do it anyway. When you identify ways that you have wronged another person, it is important to admit your wrongs honestly and thoroughly. One way to do this is to use the "Seven A's of Confession:"

• Address everyone involved (All those whom you affected)
• Avoid if, but, and maybe (Do not try to excuse your wrongs)
• Admit specifically (Both attitudes and actions)
• Acknowledge the hurt (Express sorrow for hurting someone)
• Accept the consequences (Such as making restitution)
• Alter your behavior (Change your attitudes and actions)
• Ask for forgiveness

When we try to reconcile our broken relationships - as it depends on us. When we do - God will be proud!
