Healing

I've written in the past on the power of Christian reconciliation. I'm convinced that there is almost nothing that can match the glory given to God when His people are divided - sometimes deeply and bitterly - and then reconcile. It is usually intimidating to initiate the process and carries the risk of deeper hurt, but with love and a little humility God is powerfully glorified.

As I wrote about earlier, Aaron at Radical Congruency recently went through some hurt at the hands of folks from his own church. I'm very pleased to report that he has reconciled with nearly everyone involved. Through this whole process, as is usually the case, he even learned something about himself. His post about it is a powerful testimony to God's plan for our lives, namely that we love each other deeply, go read it.

Thanks for pointing me back to Aaron's site. I had read all the initial comments last week and it was great to read how everything turned out.
Forgiveness and Reconciliation, isn't that what it all boils down to
