A
reminder for today
The
man replied, "It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit, and I
ate it." (Genesis 3:12)
Mistakes – I guess it is a natural response in human
nature to seek a reason for making a mistake. We would rather get angry and
blame someone or something for our mistakes than seek out our own faults. Is it
pride? Is it that we strive for perfection in an imperfect world? Or do we just
like to make ourselves feel better at someone else's expense?
Adam and Eve were punished for their disobedience in the Garden
of Eden that left them banished from the garden to live of the land with hard
work. Their mistake cost them dearly. Making mistakes is part of life and in
them we learn and we grow. Allowing yourself to make a mistake and excepting
the punishment that follows is part of forgiveness.
Forgiveness plays such a vital role in our daily lives. Not
only does it free you from the guilt, but it sets you free from the grip of the
enemy. You see the enemy does not want you to succeed. He wants you to fail
until you get to a point where you give up and slip into darkness. God on the
other hand wants you to be free and to succeed, otherwise He would not have
send His son to save you.
My dear friend, make mistakes and accept the result. Forgive,
because God forgave you.
My prayer for you is that you will accept your
mistakes and forgive yourself for them and those that make mistakes around you, in Jesus name.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
