If only.... those must be the two saddest words in the world.

Shades of Morning

• Sin was sin - no matter how acceptable in the world...

• "Sin was sin for a reason.  Sin would tear you apart, leave you bleeding, snatch your future & drain away the life.  It would make you alone when you could have had a family at your side." -Taylor

• She'd hung on to her regrets instead of her joys....

Let it go

• We so easily allow the winter of regret to eradiate the joy of spring and all things new. Its a mental battle that is as powerful as any fought in trenches or in tanks.

• "Should" is something we can NOT control. It is the past, not the future. So why do we spend all our time beating ourselves up for something we cant get back?

• We cling to our dreams of what we wish the past could have been & set ourselves up to be hurt again & again

• How much of your life have you spent looking in the rearview mirror of your life? Spending too much time with your focus there can lead to a wreck!

• A person preoccupied with herself is a person not preoccupied with God

• I have discovered that its hard to fall off a pedestal when you are washing someone's feet.

• I heard someone say that the hour or two we spend worshipping on a Sunday is the time when we are the least honest & real. Perhaps that is because we are afraid to show who we really are in case we are rejected or judged.

• Kindness is underrated in our world. Simple acts of mercy leave more of the fragrance of Christ because they touch us where we live & where we are the thirstiest.
