DON’T BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF. – ROMANS 8 : 28, MICAH 7 : 7

“DON’T BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF. GOD can bring good even out of your mistakes. Your finite mind tends to look backward, longing to undo decisions you have come to regret. This is a waste of time and energy, leading only to frustration. Instead of floundering in the past, release your mistakes to GOD. Look to The LORD in trust, anticipating that GOD’S infinite creativity can weave both good choices and bad into a lovely design. Because you are human, you will continue to make mistakes. Thinking that you should live an error-free life is symptomatic of pride. Your failures can be a source of blessing, humbling you and giving you empathy for other people in their weaknesses. Best of all, failure highlights your dependence on The LORD. GOD is able to bring beauty out of the morass of your mistakes. Trust GOD, and watch to see what HE will do.”

Scripture

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8 : 28

But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. MICAH 7 : 7

Prayer

Prayer: Lord thank you for bringing good out of my mistakes. Thank you for your grace and mercy that are new everyday. Help me to accept that I will continue to make mistakes because I’m human and see them as reminders to have humility and grace for others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
