The Blame Game

It’s so easy to pass on the burden of mistakes to someone else. Justifying why things happen without accepting personal faults. We blame others because we want to lessen our own guilt. But it does not negate the fact that things happened partly, if not entirely because of us.

We can never run away from our own mistakes and certainly we can never run away from the truth. We have to own our shortcomings instead of shifting the blame all the time on others.

Lord God, grant us the grace of acceptance and healing from our own mistakes. Amen.
