Regrets
A Call to Persevere (Hebrews 10:19-23)
19 And so, dear brothers and sisters,* we can boldly enter heaven’s Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. 20 By his death,* Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place. 21 And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God’s house, 22 let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ’s blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.
Having lost those whom you have not treated well, or have lost the chance to treat well,
is really one of the most regrettable feeling one can ever experience.
I regret having handled things like that.
The refusal to let down my pride to show that I care.
The harbouring of hurts from the individual, and thus refusing to show that I care.
I wished I was more, open-minded. More, willing to let go of my pride.
It’s perhaps, not entirely my fault.
But I admit to not doing the best I could at the point, at those crucial points where everything went downhill from there forth.
Now, all I can do, is pray for these people.
One by one.
I keep them in my prayer list.
And I will pray.
And, I also pray for this to be the end.
That anyone else that comes my way.
I will treasure. And I will hurt no longer.
For those I have hurt, and still stick by me.
I promise, to my best capabilities, and by His grace, to no longer hurt you.
Love what I can now.
And love what comes my way in the future.
Random thoughts of the night. :)
