7 A’s of Confession: 1. Address everyone involved and only them. Talk to them about my faults. Do it right away and be persistent. Only talk to people who are part of the problem or part of the solution. 2. Avoid “if”, “but”, “maybe”. That’s just blaming the other party and finding fault with them for my own failure. “If I offended you”, “Maybe I was wrong”, “If you hadn’t said that”, “I’m sorry, but you..” 3. Admit specifically what you did, when possible. 4. Apologize - express your sorrow for your sin 5. Ask for forgiveness. Most people leave this out. The other party might be 99% wrong, but this isn’t about them right now. It’s about your own log. 6. Accept the consequences. Make restitution. It’s what you ought to do. Don’t demand that they pretend nothing happened. 7. Alter your behavior. You won’t be perfect, but you’ll get better. Repent before God (Robert Williams).
