Yeah, I know what you all may be thinking. "But, Sam, don you always say everyone's different?" And, to that, I say this. " Yes, that is what I usually say. Good catch and point!l
Ok then, so my writing for the day targets those who are lovers of utilizing excuses. Not an excuse user? Forward what you read today to your, loved ones who do love to use excuses.
What is an excuse? My Google assistant,(GA) says attempt to lessen the blame attaching to a fault or offense); seek to defend or justify"
Yup, that sounds about right! So, now what am I thinking? Wow, If I didn't think so before, then Well, I am now a believer. I believe that you should not make excuses.
You're apologizing for something you did wrong. Then just apologize. Why do you need to say something to justify the wrong you did? Would not that just be us Trying to Make the Wrong we did seem OK.
Folks, to reiterate do not make an excuse! Own up to what you did! I thought you were apologizing!
Maybe, One should think for themselves this. How would I feel
If someone was apologizing to me, but then gave an excuse?
I once read Somewhere that an excuse is the skin of a reason stuffed with a lie. Or, as someone put it, an excuse is a fancy lie all dressed up for dinner.
2 Corinthians 5:10,
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.
But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. Please have me excused.’ And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them. Please have me excused.’ And another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’
But Moses said to the Lord, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.” Then the Lord said to him, “Who has made man's mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.” But he said, “Oh, my Lord, please send someone else.” Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses and he said, “Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Behold, he is coming out to meet you, and when he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” And Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.” Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God
