I’m glad someone stepped in too. There are clearly some things that are right and wrong for everybody. And a man punching his wife is wrong. Regardless of who we are or where we live, we know that intuitively. Sorry you had to be witness to the man’s threat to his wife.

Well, they do say we’re most annoyed in others because of the same things in ourselves. I don’t know if that’s always true, but often it is. I have bitten my tongue a lot lately but need to bite it still more often. 😉

I’m noticing all the verbs you use, Lisa. Those are all things we can DO, not just think about. The actions of love. Beautiful.

Amen to that, Kristen–may God never leave us alone in our weaknesses. I’m glad we can rest on that promise!

It was good that it happened to me because I need those reminders too about time. We all need to receive grace and give grace–that’s part of our human experience that God blesses us with. Thanks for stopping by, Natalie.

True, better a day early than a day late. I haven’t thought of it that way, Dolly. 🙂 I’m thankful God is in charge of grace and justice too–with one of us in charge, things would go crazy fast! ha.

I love that analogy, Beth. I think I read it somewhere too (maybe a Max Lucado book?). Even between the richest and the poorest among us, we’re still not that different. We all need grace equally!
