Three Words That Say…I Am Not Sincere
Posted by Kenny Vaughan on 22nd Feb 2024
The words are: “I’m not perfect.”
If I say, “I am sorry, but I’m not perfect,” then my apology is not sincere. I am really trying to shift the blame from me to you. The problem wasn’t that what I did or said hurt you. The problem was that you expected me to be perfect.
Or if someone says, “I am sorry for the misunderstanding,” or, “I am sorry that I overreacted”—then they are trying to shift the blame from themselves to you. The problem wasn’t what they did that hurt you. The problem was that your original reaction caused them to overreact; or that it was simply a misunderstanding that you caused.
So, again--when people do this, they are not sincere in their apology. They are trying to shift the blame from themselves to you.
Trust God’s Word no matter what.
Keep your eyes on the horizon.
