I was raised to clean up my messes. My wife still reminds me to clean up after myself. It is one thing to make a mess after cooking in the kitchen. It is another to mess up where relationships are concerned. Humbly asking forgiveness is a good first step toward cleaning up this kind of mess. God has made it simple for us where He is concerned.
“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and cleans us from all unrighteousness.” 1Jo.1.9 Conversations Within” ts 7/14/
