Hope in Action/Connect

Owning it is not weakness. It is how you step into the light.

Seeking Forgiveness

The text you have not sent. The person you avoid in the grocery store. Pride will keep the fracture. Humility will open a door God can walk through.

Confess without the speech

Do not explain it to death. Name it. Ask. Leave the outcome with God. Romans 12:18 — as much as depends on you, live at peace. You cannot force them to grant it. You can be clean.

If they need time, give it. If they need restitution, take it seriously.

Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.

James 5:16 (NKJV)

Receive God’s first

Some people apologize to everyone except the Father. Start there. First John 1:9 still works. Then go find the person. We can help you think through the conversation.

Come this Saturday already forgiven, and walk out a peacemaker.

Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

Matthew 5:23-24 (NKJV)
