I realise this is the season of Lent and whether or not you have jumped on board with the whole denying-self routine, here are a few things I’d like you to consider, as part of your journey as a victorious overcomer. How about denying yourself the “luxury” of thinking about yourself in negative terms? How […]

(1) If you want to know about prayer, examine the life of Jesus: He prayed when the pressures of life increased. He prayed when important decisions had to be made. It’s when you think you don’t have time to pray, that you need to pray most. Spending time with God is the secret to having […]
It’s Not Nice! Ever walked into a room and realised you’ve just interrupted a conversation, where you were the subject of discussion? It’s happened to me quite a few times!

I wish, Carol! Other than with my eating, I have a lot of learning about discipline. But I’ve learned throughout my life that the things I thought I would regret one day actually helped me become who I am today (think: teen pregnancy, divorce, lifestyle choices) so I no longer regret but instead learn from anything I do that may not have been my best choice. Discipline would prevent me from making those type decisions, though sometimes it isn’t even about that. Sometimes we go left when going right would avoid a traffic jam. Instead of regretting, we can ask the Lord, “What can I learn while I am here?”

I like that Shell Vera. Thanks for elaborating and continuing the conversation. I need to take a leaf from your book and instead of regretting what I’ve done, or failed to do, move on and learn from my experiences.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me this helpful and enlightening comment.
