Sorrowful

 

Sorrowful

Psalm 51, Matthew 5:4, John 14, 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, I Thessalonians 4:13-18

Everyone has regrets in their life. David’s regrets were shared with us in Psalm 51. He had taken another man’s wife and had her husband killed to make her his own. With a deep-seated heart of remorse, he repented and ask God to “create in him a clean heart and renew a steadfast spirit within him.” He asked for forgiveness and in God’s infinite mercy God forgave him.

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

“Jesus is the Way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ.” John 14:6. God hears our prayers, He answers prayers, He sends us the Holy spirit to help us and live within us. He gives us peace. John 14.

I Thessalonians 4:13-18 reminds us that we don’t have to sorrow over the loved ones that have gone before us because when Jesus comes to get us, He will raise up the dead first, then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so, we shall always be with the Lord.

Strive not to sorrow over past mistakes or those loved ones we miss. Give it to God and wait on Jesus to come and get us to take us home with Him.

“He who waits on the Lord shall soar like wings of an eagle.” Isaiah 40:31.

Please read the scriptures listed, study them, apply them to your life and grow in the saving relationship with Jesus Christ our Savior.
