A LETTER OF APOLOGY
4 stars|9 comments|June 14, 2008|494 reads
 
Dear Offended,

I   did  you  wrong  and  I  am  truly  very  sorry.
I  maybe  all  you  say  I  am.
But  Jesus  still  loves  me

He  alone  is  my  Savior.  There  is  nothing  outside  me  that  can  change  that

He  loves  us  all  just  as  we  are  with  all  our  faults.
None  of  us  will  ever  be  perfect  in  this  life  time.

The  knowledge  that  God  loves  me  beyond  all  limits  compels  me  to  love  myself  and  others  the  same  way.

This  doesn't  make  me  Mr.  wonderful  but  it  should  at  least  reveal  Christ  in  me.

Hate  the  sin  but  love  the  sinner.  I'm  just  a  sinner  who  keep  trying  to  please  the  one  who  died  and  rose  again  for  us  all..

I  put  everyones  and  my  own  faults  at  the  foot  of  the  cross  of  Christ  in  exchange  for  His  peace  and  joy.

I  trade  all  the  negatives  of  this  world  for  the  fullness  of  life  that  only  Christ  can  give. I  pray  with  earnest  that  you  can  truly  understand  this.

Bare  with  me  as  I  try  to  explain  myself.  I'm  trying  to  make  myself  very  clear  to  you.

Who  among  us  has  no  imperfections, no  indiscretions, nothing  that  might  be  offensive  to  someone  somewhere?  This  is  a  standard  and  expectation  which  is  impossible  for  anyone  to  live  up  to.

Does  " OUR  RIGHTS "  have  any  compassion?

Well  if  it  doesn't  it  is  time  that  it  should  have  the  compassion  of  our  Father  in  Heaven.

Didn't  Christ  give  up  all  His  " RIGHTS " of  Lord  of  heaven  so  that  He  may  share  them  with  us?

I  did  something  wrong, you  took  offense  and  rightly  so.  I   was  wrong  and  I'm  very  very  sorry  for  it.  please  forgive  me.  I  think  I'm  a  better  person  because  you  are  in  my  life.  And  that  is  where  I  always  want  you  to  be .  As  God  is  my  witness  that  is  the  truth.

Our  Lord Jesus'  and  your  Sarvant

Well BokenBread, whoever this is intended for, I hope they see your heart.  We ALL say things and make mistakes along the way (I certainly have) and I'm man enough to admit it.  What separates the sheep from the goat is whether people accept it.

My husband preaches that Jesus didn't come to "give us our rights" but "to fix our wrongs". It also seems that as Protestants, we don't confess nearly enough abour our own wrongs.  (the Catholics find confession easier). My heart is touched, because you shared this and you said it sincerely from the heart.  You accomplished step one now I pray that the person you are writing to will complete the process!

This is very moving, revealing a sincere tenderness of heart that compels other to take a second look at what really motivates our lives. Thanks you for posting it.

We are all saved by grace.  We all sin and through Jesus we confess and are forgiven.  I agree we love the person and hate the sin.  I too do not know who this letter is for but I can see it is from you heart.  God Bless.

Loving each other, warts and all, is (to me) one of the most amazing miracles God does in our lives when we submit ourselves to Him.

I pray your apology was recieved graciously and healing has already begun taking place.  Apologies are few and far between in our pride-filled world.  Kudos to you, Bread, for being willing to humble yourself for the express purpose of living in unity with a sibling in Christ.

I don't know who this is for, but I will say that if they are a Christian they should see the true heart and soul of the person writing. I pray all will be well and I want you to know you are Loved.

wow you all  bless  me  so  much thank you all  and God bless love all of you.

When we do  right  we  never  know  where  the  chain  of  love  will  end.

When  we  do  wrong  we also  never  know  where  the  chain  of  hate  will  end.

We  are  being  watch  and  others  learn  what  we  do.

We  need  to  take  responsibility  to  do  right  and  when  we  slip  to  correct  the  wrongs  before  they  go  to  far.

Thank  you  all  for  your  love  and  support  God bless

Broken Bread.  Its hard ofr some to just say I'm sorry, let alone write such a sincerely heartfelt and humble letter of apology.  God bless you.
