Do over! Mulligan! Another chance! We all need another opportunity to correct a single mistake or sometimes a whole day. Unfortunately opportunities are available once. We must make the most of every opportunity that we are given. I wish I could take back several careless words. I long for chances to see faces of people with whom I wish I could have invested more time. Words do damage and time marches on. So, I throw myself upon grace. I cannot change what I have done, but Jesus Christ died to erase my guilt. I still have to pay the consequences for my actions, and I accept that. I am forgiven! I will shout that from the highest mountain. I have been set free from my prison. Where my righteousness is still being perfected (because I am NOT THERE YET), I have already been given His righteousness in the sight of God. Tomorrow I will wake up with a day full of opportunities. I plan on setting my sights on that fact and not looking back. When I take even a glance back, I fall back to temptations, regrets, and habitual sins. When I see what I could be (His holiness), I run with unbridled thankfulness into His arms. I am NOT THERE YET. I am not what I was.
