A walk in my shoes: righting my wrong

Have you ever found yourself caught up in the moment and just saying something for the heck of it not thinking about the consequences or the feelings that will be brought out once you say it?

yeahhh I had one of those moments today. I said something out of anger for something I heard had happened. I wasn't there during the incident and also only know one side of the story. After I said what I did I wish there was a rewind button...a button I could just point to on some universal life remote to retract my words and the feelings that came to when someone heard them.

But unfortunately for me there is no such thing. I got called out on it too...&& I'm glad I did, if only to be taught a lesson. I think so many of us have a problem with getting so caught up in the moment. Whether it be with certain actions we do or words we say. Now I have never been one to wish ill on anyone, and i'd be pretty positive many people would back me up on that statement. So when I say something a bit hurtful to someone who doesn't know me...I've given them the preconceived notion that I am a rude, judgmental, crappy person...which kills me inside. I have and probably forever will be a people pleaser. That is another thing I can be backed up on by many. But I guess I'm writing this not for anyone that reads it, but more so for myself. I am in no means a perfect person and will never be that. But I do want to always right my wrongs when given the opportunity. To admit that I was indeed in the wrong and to you...I am sorry. You may never read this and if not that's okay. My stomachs been in knots thinking about it and I just decided to write, I've found that to be one of my stress releasors now a days.

While sitting here being mad at myself I got out my Jesus Calling book and opened it to todays devo. I opened the September 1st page because technically it is the first here. This is what it says::

SEEK ME with your whole being. I desire to be found by you and I orchestrate the events in your life with a purpose in mind. When things go well and you are blessed, you can feel me smiling on you. When you encounter rough patches along your life journey, trust that my light is still shinning upon you. My reasons for allowing these adversaries may be shrouded in mystery, but my continual presence with you is an abundant promise. Seek me in good times, seek me in hard times. You will find me watching over you at all times.

If that isn't the perfect thing to read in this moment I'm not sure what is. God has an amazing way of showing he still loves us and is with us even when we mess up. So I guess to anyone who is struggling with a rough patch in their lives, never forget that God is right there with you. Whether it be big or small you are not alone.

So thankful other people aren't the deciders of how I spend my eternity. God knows my whole heart and for that I'm forever grateful.

to livin up this post, jennifer & myself went on a drive the other day.

Here's some of our pictures from around our side of the world.
