Falling, Failing, and Flailing

If you are anything like me then you are, shall we say, human.
You make a lot of mistakes.
But, as a Christian we can't dwell on them (I'm talking to myself here, but if this happens to help any of you oh so faithful readers [I flatter myself {ha, ha, ha}], then that would be great). I knew writing this down would be helpful because I feel better already after doing that triple parentheses. But back to the subject, don't beat yourself up. Repent if you have wronged God, ask Him to forgive you, and then WHEN you make that same mistake again, move on, try to do better in the future, but accept God's promised forgiveness. The bible says that He remembers that we are dust. Now I know that we all want to please Him, and I'm not saying we shouldn't try, but I'm tired of feeling like I can't go to Him because I have to suffer through so kind of waiting period before I am allowed to talk to Him again. God is much bigger than that, and not anything like us. Let's remember that as we fall, fail, and flail through our days.
