If our Savior could endure the hostility of the cross, certainly we can train ourselves to endure the hostility of cross words from infuriating friends and family.
Apologizing for our weakness means we still think something is wrong with us, when in reality, weakness just means we’re children! And God wants us to see His strength as our strength.
Just imagine if your doctor only gave you the news you wanted to hear, instead of the diagnosis you needed to live! A painful truth is worth way more than a comfortable lie.
