"I am sorry" ISN'T JUST ENOUGH !

   It was dawn already, much after the thick darkness gave way for the east-rising sun. As I dashed into the washroom for my regular cleansing cascade.
   

       The shouts of pain raised my curiosity, as my eyes couldn't help but reflexly gazed through the window, to locate the subject at that moment.

         Behold, it was a girl, whose age range would probably be within 7 and 9 years (as she posed on a chair) with her Aunt (seated on a higher chair, with arms flexed around her head, helping to fix her hair. As the child made her first wawl, initially, I felt it was a price to be paid for beauty. But later on, I discovered it was a response to the spiritless actions of her improvised stylist.

         Then, the showers of water fell off my body unused, still in the bathroom, as i paused in wonder, will this Aunt not stop fixing her hair?
More worried, I became, when I overheard the Aunt kept repeating the words;
"SORRY  SORRY SORRY" (so apathetically) to this helpless school girl.  Each time the pain is inflicted, the girl will scream, the Aunt will reply "SORRY". At a time, the Aunt had to stop.

LESSON:
💎Then it struck me; Sometimes sorry isn't just enough. We've got to change.


Do you or I intentionally hurt your friend, Family, or siblings, having already prepared a "SORRY" for them ?

Do you or I derive pleasure in hurting your spouse, kids or parent, intentionally, with the aim of using the word "SORRY" as an escape route?


How true is it that, many times our actions to hurt the heart of God are premeditated, and we hope to give him a "SORRY" afterwards, ?

Dear, sorry isn't just enough!

Sorry is good, but change is better.We've got to change!

We should stop inflicting pain on others intentionally, Sorry is actually meant to express a feeling of regret of actions, profound enough, and not deliberately done. It doesn't unhurt its subject. Too many "sorrys" turns one to a joker, and joy-breaker.


Even as the year 2019 approaches, be determined to be a joy adder.


Do more than Sorry, CHANGE.
"I am sorry" isn't just enough!

God bless you!
