I'm always glad to be reminded that God's love is so much bigger than human love. Kind of like the sky out west -- it just goes on and on and on.
I had the great joy this morning of walking and talking along a scenic path with my cousin. We like discussing things of the Spirit, bouncing ideas off one another. I was speaking on behalf of caution in not wanting to offend people, while she took the approach for trusting your relationship to God enough to do your highest sense of right boldly.
Part of the conversation touched on a diverse group of women she'd been part of for some months in a prior job. They were department heads who worked together to keep their departments coordinated.
Kim was searching to understand why the group had communicated so well together. Then she had it. "First there was a lot of joy. That was important. Then there was forgiveness. Sometimes we tromped on one anther's toes. Forgive, forgive, forgive. That's what made it work."
Conclusion: If God is your boss, trust that relationship. Make decisions on the basis of that relationship, with a deep desire to bless. Keep your joy, and add a generous dose of quick forgiveness of honest mistakes. As big as a western sky.
