Mistakes




People make mistakes. Every day of your lives, we make mistakes. They are called; sins, slights, errors in judgement, world class fuck ups and the list goes on, and on, and on. Our Lord and Savior does not stop loving us because of any one of,or an amalgamation of, these mistakes. Likewise, we should not love The Lord any less for our mistakes. That is Unconditional Love!  Does that give us free reign to sin? No. Does another's unconditional love give us free reign to cheat or lie or belittle? No. But if that love is unconditional, they will forgive us. Jesus said, "Seventy times seven," do you forgive your brother if he sins against you. So you forgive those you love unconditionally. That does not mean you forget. That does not mean you tolerate. But we all make mistakes. If someone cannot forgive you, look you in your eyes and see the sadness, hurt, humility, regrets and still see the love you have for have for them, then perhaps their love is not so unconditional.
