Has it ever come to your heart to apologize to someone with whom you were in a relationship for any pain you may have caused them? I did that today. It was time.

When a relationship ends, we aren't always in a place to own our part in its failure or for hurtful things we may have said or done, and the other person may not be in a place to accept it at that time either.

Scripture exhorts us to make peace with as many people and to reach out a healing hand whenever possible. It hinders our walk with God and our prayer life when we don't.

I'm glad God put it on my heart to do this. I pray it brings healing in more ways than I understand. God wants to lighten the load we carry. We need to allow Him to do that. Humbling our hearts before those we may have hurt may not feel so great in the beginning, but it feels pretty awesome when all is said and done.

Is there anything you need to prayerfully say to someone from your past? I would encourage you to do it. :)

Thank you, Jullianna. This is what I needed to hear and something I feel heavily on my heart to do.

It is also just as important to forgive those in our past, even if they haven't asked for it. This something I hadn't realized was even needed until recently.

I like to apologize, face to face if possible, but also over the net if that's the only way, as it has been in some cases. Due to separate lives and countrys.

I would love the opportunity to say sorry to one woman in particular, from my non Christian life, I said a horrible, unthoughtful drunken sentance to her. But I renounce worldly sorrow, and pray God will bring her in to His Kingdom, and Lord willing I'll see her in heaven or before
