Day 3: Owning Your Part

Reading: Ephesians 4:32, James 5:16

Devotional: The hardest person to confront is often yourself. Admitting we've caused harm requires brutal honesty and genuine humility. Yet this is where true repair begins. When we confess our faults and seek forgiveness, we model Christ's vulnerability and create space for healing. Forgiveness flows both ways—we must extend it and receive it. Your children, friends, and community are watching how you handle mistakes. Do you deflect blame or own your actions? Being Christ-like means acknowledging our humanity while striving for holiness. The relationships you've damaged through careless words, broken trust, or selfish actions can be restored, but only if you're willing to do the uncomfortable work of genuine repentance and making amends.

Reflection Question: What specific harm have you caused that needs your attention and action to repair?
