You said the wrong words, took the wrong turns, loved the wrong person, reacted the wrong way.
You spoke when you should’ve listened, judged when you should’ve trusted, indulged when you should have resisted.
But don’t let yesterday’s mistakes sabotage today’s attitude!
So, what makes the difference?
Daily drenching rains! Deluges keep the ground moist, the trees wet, and the lightning impotent.
Lightning strikes you as well. Thunderbolts of regret can ignite and consume you. Counter them with downpours of God’s grace, daily washings of forgiveness.
Once a year won’t do. Once a month is insufficient. Weekly showers leave you dry. Sporadic misting leaves you combustible! You need a solid soaking every day!Choose to make it a great day—every day!
