Giving thanks for lessons learned – again.

That I must resist, this time, a lifelong flaw: when I perceive the crisis has passed, I let the healing discipline slide.  That will not do this time; the mission has only begun. This time fervent, diligent, Biblical disciplines must flow on and on.

¹⁶ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. source James 5 (NKJV)

And let us give thanks that we can give thanks.

³² And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you. source Ephesians  4 (NKJV)
