Certainly not I.Did you?
I mean seriously - if I had known - I would have done things a whole lot differently. Well at least I think I would have - I mean - without actually knowing how things would have been, had they been different than they actually are, it's kinda hard to say, truthfully, what I would do [just being honest here] But knowing myself as well as I do [which I am finding out as each day passes, isn't as well as I thought] I am pretty darn sure, I would have done allot of things differently, had I been given the opportunity.
So, how about you?
I know, I know. We can't change anything now. It does us no good to dwell on the past.
That is not my intention by any means.
However, sometimes it is good to glance back and remember from whence we have come from.
Where the Lord has delivered us.
It can help us in our current situation.
Where we are in life - in our walk with God - Remind us of God's faithfulness, of His love, His grace, His compassion, His peace, in a very personal way.
It's easy to forget.
Life has a way of stealing all of God's precious gifts away - if we let it - if we're not oh so careful.
Life's busy schedules, relationship issues, troublesome financial situations, every day burdens can creep in unawares and before we know it, the gift of waking up every morning, is transformed into a burdensome involuntary ritual. Lacking peace and leaving us wanting.
The Cost of Being a Disciple
A large crowd was following Jesus. He turned around and said to them, “If you want to be my disciple, you must hate everyone else by comparison—your father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple. And if you do not carry your own cross and follow me, you cannot be my disciple.
“But don’t begin until you count the cost. For who would begin construction of a building without first calculating the cost to see if there is enough money to finish it? 29 Otherwise, you might complete only the foundation before running out of money, and then everyone would laugh at you. They would say, ‘There’s the person who started that building and couldn’t afford to finish it!’
“Or what king would go to war against another king without first sitting down with his counselors to discuss whether his army of 10,000 could defeat the 20,000 soldiers marching against him? And if he can’t, he will send a delegation to discuss terms of peace while the enemy is still far away. So you cannot become my disciple without giving up everything you own.
Luke 14:25-33
