God Allows U-Turns

We are human- capable of making mistakes. Nobody is perfect.  Let us all admit: In some point of our lives: we make wrong choices, wrong decisions and wrong turns. I raise my hand- oops yes, guilty! My story is different from yours but God’s promise for us is similar. He allows U-turns. God forgives. No matter how far you run in the wrong direction, by God's grace and love you can turn your life around and get going again in the right direction.

Don’t let the past define who you are. I know it will take some time before you can totally forgive yourself. I myself had been in a wrong road before. My life was in a big mess. I faced the consequences of my actions. But as I always tell: I’m not there anymore. There will always be people who will still judge and will not believe in you but don’t mind them. Just keep going. Hey! It’s not between you and them in the first place. It’s between you and God anyway. God see what’s inside your heart! So don’t worry. You are a person of worth. Stop thinking that your past has disqualified you for having a good life. Always prove that you deserve a second chance. Past is past, you have the present- the result of the past but you have the power now to let it be the way you want it to be. You gained lessons for sure- use them instead as a guide in your future.

It is not easy to start all over again, when you have to go back to the right direction and pick up all your mess. I've been there. I can assure you, it's all worth it. When you look back, you will be amazed how that life shaking experience turn you into a person God wants you to be: stronger, better, You version 2.0 :D

If you're heading in a wrong direction, don't be discouraged! God allows U-Turn.

Godbless our path!

Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live.
