First, let’s start with the word deem<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n The word deem<\/em> has to do with regarding<\/em><\/strong> and considering<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n Also, we often connote this word with giving<\/em> something worth<\/strong>. It’s a verb after all.<\/p>\n The monarch deemed the knight fit for duty.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n There is hardly anything that won’t improve with some redemption.<\/p>\n How does it happen? It’s not magic at all.<\/p>\n It pivots on the one offering redemption. That can be anyone, king or not. Redemption reaches out. The reinstitution of worth<\/strong><\/em> happens after the deficit is noticed, and after the choice to correct it \u00a0has been made. I should rather say put it right<\/strong><\/em>, but more on that in a minute.<\/p>\n In redeeming<\/em> merit is given, or rather given again. This would presuppose that everything has inherent worth at the onset, no matter what. That’s a salient point.<\/p>\n Sometimes\u00a0redeeming happens without the\u00a0prerequisite\u00a0merit\u2013and that is grace. <\/strong>Redemption and grace make a lovely pair.<\/p>\n You may have noticed that we go around deeming things all the time<\/em>.<\/p>\n You will deem this short article helpful or a waste before you even get to the end of it, for instance.<\/p>\n The real genius of the concept comes when we realize that deeming and redeeming is always available. Offering it and attaining or receiving it. It more commonly found than you think, but you have to be ready to act. You have to be more than ready, but willing too.<\/p>\n So, one more big point:<\/p>\n There is a mutuality<\/strong><\/em> in redeeming. And that first smacks as counter-intuitive.<\/p>\n Redemption benefits both<\/em><\/strong> parties involved. It’s a communal because of the fact that is it a restorative act. And because it is restorative, it is just.<\/p>\n Want to start spreading redemption? You can help by sharing this on Facebook and letting it loose in your own life in little ways.<\/em><\/p>\n (Don’t forget to sign up for the next post-in the sidebar.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We go around deeming things all the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5626,76],"tags":[4378,4377,1122,5928,1191,5053,1426,1462,1524,1616,1763,4652,2016,4077,2109,4924,4798,2784,2807,4643,4859,3421,6117,3711,4641,5465],"class_list":["post-13671","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spark-my-muse","category-spirituality","tag-be","tag-do","tag-end","tag-everything","tag-facebook","tag-fact","tag-genius","tag-giving","tag-grace","tag-help","tag-in","tag-king","tag-life","tag-lovely","tag-magic","tag-offering","tag-power","tag-real","tag-redemption","tag-sharing","tag-start","tag-things","tag-verb","tag-will","tag-word","tag-worth"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13671","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13671"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13671\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13676,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13671\/revisions\/13676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13671"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13671"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13671"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}That’s the power of redeeming<\/strong><\/em> too.<\/h3>\n
