that there was a time in my life I left the hand of God
Hi Amrita,
Almost all Christians go to that black episodes in their lives. What is important is that one regain his foothold and follow the path to God. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
The biggest regrets of life are things not done, people not loved, words not said. You may think you regret the things you've said or done, or the love you've given, yet looking back over time it is what you failed to do or say or the love you kept hidden that you regret the most.
** For me, I regret those times I failed to follow my heart, choosing instead to follow the path of practicality. I've never had regrets for following the voice of my heart - NEVER! **
The worst regrets in my life are the hurtful things I'd done to my loved ones, and not being able to pursue Fashion Design.
But those things, looking back at them, had taught me lessons.
Hi Mom,
You speak with wisdom culled from years of experiences in the school of life. I agree with you that there were things which we have not said or done which left us with regrets in life. Follow one's heart. That is a very wise saying. Thanks for the visit and comments. God bless you always.
Hi Bingkee,
Yes, that's what's important in life- to learn from our mistakes. There are things we can no longer rectify but we can always learn from the expensive lessons those mistakes have taught us. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
I regret that I never showed my compassion to my father when he was still alive. I regret that I never told him how much I love and appreciate all the things that he've done for us. Wish I could turn back time.
But it taught me a lot lessons in life, now I am more showy of my affection to my love ones..
I regret that I did not pursue my college education when I was young. I just now find it seriously to study, but its never too ate right?
my greatest regret was i followed me and not God. BIG mistake!
Hi Rose,
That is a good development from something which we failed to do in the past. Now you can show and express all your love to your loved ones. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
Hi John,
Yes it's never too late to study and pursue all our dreams in life as long as we are still alive. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
Hi sis Pia,
No problem with that. All of us, one time or another, followed our own will until God brought us back to our senses and we obediently followed Him. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
I think I'm the person who doesn't believe in regret... Perhaps because before I jump into decisions(big or small), I offer it all to God... and sometimes, I ask for signs...Maybe it's just a personal belief but I'm happy with it... At least, I know that if it doesn't work out then, it's not just coincidence... it happened for a reason:))
Hi SDhawie,
That's a very healthy mindset you have. As Romans 8:28 says, "All things work together for the good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose." To live a very purposeful life and not to have regrets whatsoever is a very healthy mental attitude indeed. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you always.
