A Work of Heart

• Feb. 25, 2006 - I'm Sorry Is NOT An Apology

A few weeks back, I realized that my children were saying "I'm sorry" when they had offended/sinned against their sibling, but that it wasn't really asking for forgiveness. I have tried to explain to my children that asking forgiveness means true repentance and that you are not only sorry for what you have done, BUT you are also going to not do it again. You have had a change of heart.

I came across this WONDERFUL article yesterday that is a must read.
I'm Sorry Is NOT An Apology

I love the site Ladies Against Feminism. I cam across it YEARS ago when I first started learning more about being a WOMAN of God, and not just a Christian. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have.

Posted by DandelionSeeds
Would you please spread the word about Candace's surgery tomorrow? I have a prayer list on my blog for anyone who would like to take a specific time to pray.

Thanks,

• Feb. 27, 2006 - Yes, I often remark to my children...

When my kiddos try that "I'm sorry!" thing I will then gently but firmly say to them,
"What darling, you're sorry that I'm a witch?" or "You're sorry that your sister is such a pain???" and it quickly reminds them the correct way to apologise. Sometimes, a little humour can bring out a sweeter spirit in a child.

Cheers,
Susan <><
