Love can cover a lot. I'm letting it cover this.

A Bible affirmation for healing a relationship, rooted in 1 Peter 4:8.

Above all, love one another deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

1 Peter 4:8 · BSB

Reflection

Not every hurt needs a confrontation. Some offenses are small enough to let love cover them and move on. Wisdom is knowing which ones those are, and which ones need a conversation.

A prayer

Lord, help me tell the difference between what I should let go and what I should talk about.
