I have committed the same sins more than once. This is not my goal or intent, but I often continue to fall prey to the same weaknesses. My family knows my weakness better than anyone, as it is often them that I sin against I feel many times that I am screwing my kids up. I scream at them when I said that I would not scream again. God is slow to anger and I ask him to make me slow to anger, but sometimes I get angry so quick. So what do I do? I say sorry another time. If it happens the next day, I say sorry again. I also notice that when I do not have time with God, my anger is more out of control, so I make sure I have time with God. I ask for help. I say sorry even if it humiliating to keep saying sorry. It helps me point my child more to the Savior we both need so desperately.
I was wrong. I am sorry. Will you forgive me?
These words have been a help to my parenting almost as much as "I LOVE YOU."
