I need you just as much as you need me

I need you

Just yesterday I said something that offended you or caused you pain.

I really had no intention of harming you.

It may have been my tone, my choice of words or just the fact that I was silent.

Eventhough we disagreed, we dont have to fight about it.

Whatever it was, I need you to tell me in a loving way specifically what I have done so I can make wrongs right. I love you too much to allow a few words to stand between us.

The bible tells us this is how we ought to solve our differences, at least the first step. Many distructive falmes could have been avoided with just this simple first step of confession and forgiveness. I must be patient with you as you are with me.

Furthermore, words are sometimes considered more precious when one party has gone to a place where they cannot hear anymore. Don’t wait.

Today I need you to tell me what I have done wrong and how I can make it right. We both have the privilege of NOW, the only time we are really sure of.

We don’t know about tomorrow…So if I hurt you, I am sorry, but I need you.
