Redemption

We are all seeking redemption in some way or other.

Maybe we are trying to leave behind a past that includes some things we’re not proud of. Maybe we’re seeking forgiveness. Maybe we lament that while we have that from others we can’t extend it to ourselves. Whatever the case, we inherently understand there is power in redemption, and we’re trying to find our way to it.

But sometimes, when we least expect it, redemption finds us. There we are on an idle weekday morning when it arrives by way of a kind word, a flash of understanding, or witnessing the best in our fellow humans.

Wherever, whenever and however redemption comes calling, it’s always a welcome guest.
