February 28: Finding Grace in Forgiving Oneself


            While we often contemplate forgiving others, we rarely consider forgiving ourselves. But we recognize that we are God’s tools, which may mean that we create the forgiveness God intends for us. Practicing grace toward ourselves releases us from our insecurities. May God give us the strength to forgive ourselves for our mistakes and our regrets. May we choose Jesus’ mission as our example and continue our search for grace by finding ways to forgive ourselves.
