Good morning Jesus
Lord, Your Spirit enables me to show grace toward others who have hurt me, betrayed the church, defrauded society, or other myriad offenses. How easy for me to give grace to those truly contrite for their misdeeds. (For the arrogant, more effort is needed.) However, when I fail, why are my attempts to extend that same grace to myself so difficult? Lord, help me forgive myself and quit beating myself up. Open my eyes to see myself through Your eyes. “I acknowledge my mistakes to You, and You forgive them” (Psalm 32:5).
Humbling acknowledging how helpless I am without Your grace, Jesus. Amen.
