Believing in Condemnation versus Conviction: how to not be so guilty and feel so ashamed

Recently, I got into trouble with my staff for throwing an attitude over something so small with a disabled person. When confronted with the evidence of attitude, I started to feel ashamed. I felt so guilty.
But then I remember a Shoreline pastor who spoke about the difference between feeling convicted and feeling condemned. He stated that condemnation sweeps over us with thoughts such as, "you a hypocrite and a failure. You know better!" It brings guilt and shame.
But God’s conviction is specific. He’ll show us a behavior that was wrong and usually give us an idea on how to make it right. Like nudging us to apologize or to ask for forgiveness.
Well, I did just that. I let God’s conviction bring restoration between my clients staff, the client and myself by apologizing. And eventually, my guilt went away.

You shall NOT be condemned any longer!
