The Blame Game 1 John 1:7-10

"The Blame Game"  1 John 1:7-10

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.  If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 John 1:7‭-‬10 KJV

Things such as fear of rejection or consequences can drive you to disown mistakes or poor choices and play the blame game. The truth is blaming generally serves to makes things worse; it makes you look small while creating distrust and dissention. Making mistakes are an inevitable part of life; it’s what you do afterwards that reveals character and gives you the ability to transform the situation. Sincerity and humility go a long way toward bringing restoration. Once you come clean, you’ll be in a position to remedy the situation. When handled properly, you can stand out in a positive way.

Mistakes are opportunities to learn and grow so you can determine what changes can be made to prevent the same thing from happening again. You can move forward in a healthy way by committing to leave things better than they were before. Many times people have been brought together in a unique way through adverse circumstances and it can be a turning point for good when you end the blame game.
