Mea Culpa

You know, there are times I am really disappointed in myself.  These times usually come after I realize that I have slidden down the preverbal 'slippery slope.'  It is only when I'm at the bottom, that I realize where I am.  That happened to me today.

I was caught off guard.  And in a moment of self indulgent weakness, I complained rather bitterly about another person in my office.  It was un-professional.  It didn't glorify my Lord at all.  Tomorrow, I will apologize to the person who listened to my outburst.  They deserve it.

Each day I start out with a time of scripture reading and prayer.  It is utterly amazing to me how quickly that can be lost when I walk in the office.  One day, I hope to change that.  With God's mercy, maybe I will.
