Everyone has made poor choices or done something in their past that could possibly be coined as “regrettable.” It’s easy to play the blame game, pointing fingers at someone else or circumstances as to why you have stumbled or why your life is difficult. Taking personal ownership that your past actions resulted in bringing about your currently reality is the first step to moving past regrets and moving toward a brighter future.
Here’s what I’d like for you to do:
ACKNOWLEDGE A MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE
If your past actions or words have harmed another person an apology may be in order. Nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. Continually berating yourself for past actions is self-defeating. Righting a wrong is not always feasible. If you feel badly about a past action, forgive yourself, others, and let it go and move on!
Good Stuff sir…good stuff. I'm still riding high on the fact that forgiveness is giving up my right to get even!
A good word Pastor!
Good stuff, bruh. The problem, in most cases, is not believing that God has forgiven us; but it's that we can't and won't forgive ourselves for something we've said or done. if we won't and can't forgive ourselves, then we have become more powerful than God. We have become our own idols, worshiping at the altar of selfishness and pride. We start playing God, a mean and unforgiving one at that. I think I will take my chances with the God who, when I acknowledge my sins, removes them are far as the East is from the West and the One who cast my sins in the sea of forgetfulness. Thanks for encouraging us with this word to move on!
Well, after reading some of the comments I ask myself whether they in reality read the weblog articles and reports before leaving your two cents or if perhaps they just look at the title of the entry and type the very first thought that comes to mind. regardless, it is cool to browse through clever commentary from time to time instead of the exact same, old blog vomit which i generally notice on the internet
