Is it Monday already? It can't be! This weekend flew by.

Still, I get to sleep before it *really* starts. Which is what I should be doing now.

So, this weekend was pretty good. I chilled out and did a lot of nothing. I did some shopping. I hung out with friends. We went to a party, a 21st birthday party and the dj was strange. Church was good too, for lots of reasons which I'll try and talk about later.

I'm sitting downstairs and I'm watching ER. I never watch ER, I hate hospital shows. Anyway, this doctor and this nurse had this argument about some patient or something, I don't know exactly what happened. They just talked again and he said that he was sorry, about everything, she said that she was sorry too and then she smiled at him and he smiled back. Everything was ok.

Forgiveness is a beautiful thing. It's awesome when a bridge is rebuilt, when there's healing between two hearts, when you forgive and forget the hurt someone else has caused you. I want to live my life with that sort of forgiveness. I've been forgiven by God with that sort of forgiveness, I don't deserve to know Him but He loves me, forgives me and accepts me as I am. It's amazing. I want to live with the same Grace, forgiveness and love in my own life.

We each have the power to build people up, to encourage them, to spur them on, with Grace and Forgiveness when appropriate and required. We also have the power to destroy people with a single word. I know what I prefer to spend my time doing.

Hebrews 10v23-25
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.


Not sure where that came from.

Tell me about your weekend!
