If God were here on earth

If God were here on earth, I can blame myself for His head filled with grays, multiple heart attacks and strokes. You’d think after everything I had already been through in my teens and early twenties; I’d learn my lesson in my mid-twenties heading towards my thirties? Oh, no! I was just getting started.

God is such a merciful and patient God, that no matter what we do He is always there reaching out to grab us when we fall. He dusts us off and sets us back onto the right path.

I’ve had to ask God multiple times in my life for forgiveness and everytime He has done just that, but the consequences of my mistakes, that He didn’t take away. In the story of Jonah, he was forgiven for going the opposite direction than what God had instructed him to go. God had to keep Jonah in the belly of the great fish for three days.

Everything we do in life has a consequence, whether good or bad. There is a price to pay for the decisions we make, whether right or wrong. Now in my forties, although I am finally on the path where God needed me to be on, I am still tasting the consequences of my actions.

I am a proud mom of three children that I would die for and a wife, but I live on my knees because this is where God knows I need to be.
