Crow

Heard a great saying:


"Its easier to eat crow while it's still warm"


This is a true statement.


The sooner you can deal with an apology the better.  Someone once said that they could tell the maturity of a person by how much time there was between the offense and the apology. I personally think that is a good gauge
  
You may speak too quickly, react instead of respond, speak without being informed, or hurt some one's feelings.  You tend to know it almost immediately.  The Holy Spirit is very good at "poking" at us when we are out of line.


Respond to that conviction.  Go quickly and say that you are sorry.  Try to reconcile and take the low road.  Ask for forgiveness.  Even Jesus said "forgive them for they don't know what they are doing"  He took us off the hook of his own heart.


Friend the sooner the better.  Don't blame your stuff on someone else.  Even if they are involved personally own your part and deal with yours do not blame them in the process.


You will feel free and that is the reason Christ died for us that we might be reconciled with God.


Walk in His Freedom Friend!
Blessings!
