“God, if I hurt others, give me the strength to apologize. If people hurt me, give me the strength to forgive.” Unknown

We would be wise to learn how to apologize and how to forgive. Both require humility. Don’t just say, “I am sorry.”  Name your offense and say, “I was wrong, will you forgive me.” Be just as quick to forgive when others ask the same of you. And seeing how so few of us have taken the time to learn how to apologize properly, forgive others before they ask. It never hurts to be a step ahead in loving people well.
