How to rejoice in this state of mind?
I do not have the answer, but I do remember the times when I am extremely and supremely happy. I have forgotten how to be happy. I am too caught up in my own private little party to be bothered. Was I ever bothered by how I have been living while all those around me were crumbling because of my actions or lack of it?
Blind! Blind! Blind!
Sensitivity seared!
It took a hard KO punch to wake me up.
It took time and the only way yo redeem the lost time is to track back to where I was before I took the detour.
Do I regret it? Yes, I do.
I regret a lot of things lately. For things to turn, I must turn to the Lord. I am totally helpless now
Looking at the bigger scheme of things, GOD never let our experiences go without letting us get something out of it. I have learned never to take my family, my friends and my GOD for granted. Now I look back and I pray for the ones whose lives I have hurt. I could offer a few words of encouragement, but the pale in comparison to the healing powers of the blood of Christ. That is so reassuring and comforting. In His promises, trust I must and trust I will. Their well-being is secure in His hands. There is nothing to worry about. It is all good. It will all turn out good for the glory of God.
I look forward to that day we see each other again in celebration. Not in condemnation or in Judgement, but in love and in Christ Jesus.
Now, turn my crawl into a walk and help me run back into your arms, Jesus!
