I'm Sorry…I Was Wrong! – Paul M. Williams

1 Samuel 25:1-35 There are many things in this life which seem to come easier to us than others.  Eating (for example) comes more readily to heart than cooking; spending than saving; resting than working.  I well could add to this list another entry; obstinacy comes more readily to heart and easier to our sinful flesh that apologising to a Brother or Sister that we have wronged through our bad attitude!  How naturally does it come to first justify ourselves along the lines of, "they deserved it!!"; how much the more enticing is it to allow offense and so-called "justified" anger to pump through our veins than we bow our stubborn hearts and turn to our Brother and say, "I'm sorry...I was wrong!" As we enter a new year; this sermon is an exhortation for us where possible, to make things right with our fellow brother or sister.  May we be the first to the mark to say; I'm sorry…I was wrong!
