Infinite

Listen to sister (me) preach: Don’t judge, emotional decisions are bad decisions, love and pray without ceasing. 

 

Here’s the deal, my truth—these very things—not passing judgement, passing on emotional decisions, love, well, love is not a real big problem, most of the time, praying without ceasing (I need a post-it note sometimes), are habits I most need help with. 

 

I wish I could flip my do-not-care switch permanently off. Some days. 

 

I [feel] I forgive too quickly, easily. Some days. 

 

Isn’t this exactly how I want to be forgiven, quickly, easily?

 

Forgiving, not judging our family of faith, I find, sometimes the most difficult forgiveness to offer. THEY should know better, right? My truth isn’t always pretty, seldom pretty, but there it is. 

 

Is it okay to ask for forgiveness, to offer forgiveness and to use ‘moron’ in the same prayer, as in I forgive the moron(s)? Asking for a friend, a friend who already knows the answer.

 

Not perfect. 

 

Grateful for grace. 

 

Repent, forgive, begin again. Over and over, to infinity and beyond.
