Forgive those we should ignore

11/19 Our heavenly Father, we offer our thanks for this day – cause us to use it wisely – to share our gifts with others – to remember those we tend to forget – to thank those we overlook – to reach out to those we ignore AND to forgive those we need to forgive. Amen

The title of this is what I thought it read. On typing the text, I realize I misread it.

Or did I?

Sharing our gifts with others includes how we see things. What captures your eye does not snag another’s attention. Your eyes and brain are wired that way…on purpose.

Taking a risk to share that is just that, a risk. Take it anyway.

I like to think Dad’s solution to all the partisan politics would be the title to today’s blog.

” ‘Nuff said,” he’d say and sign off.
