Dear wejlly, Everyone of us did a lot of stupid things and mistakes no matter they are large or small. The good news is ALL are laid upon Jesus who is the perfect sacrifice for our sins, He is BIG and STRONG enough to carry all our iniquities. Let's put our faith in Him for He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. (Phil 1:6). I don't know what mistakes that keep haunting you, but I had mine in the past that the thoughts peeped into my mind or even dreams making me cry in the middle of the night and yet no tears. That kind of feeling was horrible for I found no tears in my eyes but with a broken heart mourning for the past. Now, the Cross, His saving Grace keeps my eyes fix on Him. Do I remember my past mistakes? Yes, for sure. Do they still peep into my thoughts or dreams? Yes, they do. But what influence do they have on me...by God's grace, those memories serve no more as a torture but a milestone reminding me to walk faithfully, to seek His Grace and merciful guidance, and most importantly, to understand how much Jesus loves me that I cannot wrong Him. Sir, taste and fix your heart and mind on His amazing Grace. Ps 34:8 O taste and see that the LORD is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! Matt 11:28 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Matt 11:29 "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. Matt 11:30 "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Shalom Azure |
