LORD, my mistakes.
Missteps.
Screw-ups.
Bad choices.
Wrong decisions.
They haunt me, torment me.
Regrets, sorrows, and shames.
Rick always said that he was harder on himself than anyone else was, and a lot harder on himself than he was on anyone else.
I’m learning that those are words of anguish and truth.
My mind looks backwards a lot these days – and I wish I could undo my regrets.
But I can’t.
It’s a waste of time and energy to look back, how do I not though?
GOD, how do I release my mistakes – all of this – to YOU?
When I am afraid, LORD, I trust in YOU . . .
I don’t know what YOU are going to do, and I sure don’t know how YOU are going to do – but whatever brings YOU the Glory.
I pray that somehow YOU will bring a message out of my messes.
And a testimony out of all these tests.
That somehow YOU will make a beauty from all these ashes.
I can’t.
It is too much for me.
Psalm 131.
GOD, I am going to keep on making mistakes – too human not to.
Thank YOU that YOUR Grace is enough – at least between YOU and me.
Others aren’t so quick to give Grace, just quicker to want that Grace 😉
LORD, help me trust YOU – and just be still.
That I may know YOU – even in all of this.
: Romans 8:28 – And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.
- LORD, I have to believe and trust that YOU have called me. I know I love YOU 😉
: Proverbs 11:2 – When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.
- LORD, help me be humble. Anything good in me – is YOU!!!!!
: Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my Salvation; my God will hear me.
- LORD, I have to believe. YOU are my HOPE. My PROMISE. My PRAYER. It’s all I can do. So with YOUR Help – I will.
