Living With No Regrets預覽

The pain of regret is something we all experience at some point in our lives—regardless of our age. It is almost unavoidable. Feelings of regret over one momentary thing we did, said, or didn't do can follow us for years. If nurtured, these feelings can become rooted deep in our souls. Regret is a powerful and sometimes painful emotion. Can anything good come from regret? Well, that depends.

Research shows that feelings of regret can help us avoid future mistakes. If properly processed, we can gain valuable insight and understanding how to become better while making peace with our past. Instead of nursing, cursing, and rehearsing our regrets, we can reverse these painful emotions by turning to God.

Once you give your regrets to God, the encouraging thing is they often become springboards propelling you forward in life and purpose. Instead of sulking in self-defeat and second-guessing, give your regrets to God, and let Him heal your emotions and heart. This critical step sets the wheels in motion for you to ultimately fulfill your purpose.

See yourself today the way God sees you, as a daughter or son with a forgiven past and wonderful future. Your regrets can actually move you toward your unique life purpose which “shines brighter unto the perfect day.”

As you engage with God’s Word:

● What is God saying to me?

● What does it mean to me?

● How can I apply what God is teaching me?

● How can I be specific in prayer today?

After you reflect on these questions, bring everything to God in prayer.
