Mistakes, failures, and unresolved problems

Welcome brothers and sisters, today this is something different that isn't usually discussed. In fact if any of you reading this are first time believers, God would want me and other fellow believers to at least say this about what are life as Christians will be like. Folks today we live in a world that fast speeding knowledge is becoming the norm, where people can know everything with one flick of their phones, computers, and even in part of the jungle or location can have information given to them easily. The problem lays in how despite this ability, we can't actually know what we're seeking if no one tells us these facts. The same old problem that hasn't been fix or increased, it has been too common for people to expect every one of us to simply know them and act like we should know them by now.

This along with knowing something creates mistakes in our lives. Many of which can never be brought back or returned to our old ways, yet we must move on. Yet more times when we have our mistakes and failures, the people around us will fail in the end. As much as some would say powers of friendship, family and love can conquer things that's not normal for us. This day and age has corrupted and manipulated those ideas into some else. Our friends can be our problems who decide what is cool and what everyone demands of us, our families can be abusive, unloving and uncaring of our own problems. Even those you love will turn on us when the chips are done, yet what there have been occasion people have rise from this, there are equally many that have no real friends, family or love to help them.

Folks the point of this is when we place our trust in only ourselves and other people, they will always fail you. Not in a sense of every moment of your life, but when needed the most they will fail you, I know this because we as humans have failed them. In some point of life I have failed them because I didn't show love and respect to my parents, always felt angry and self-centered because I believe I was better then everything. That mind set had me in trouble in school more then once and one point resulted in beating my dad and breaking my mom's nose because I should be better then anything and anyone, that rage had made me a failure.

Many of you don't have this similar story, but you still have the failing of failure from present time, or regret from 10 years or more from young age. Even to this day they still remember and you have left scars in their hearts. Folks this is when we become failure to those we care about, to friends who needed us yet we weren't there, to families members hurting yet rejected their need for comfort, to your loving spouse you cherish and yet still failed even when together for at least 5-30 years. In fact America is the worse when it comes to marriage because of divorce because things didn't work out. In God's eye Marriage is created because us men and women can't live alone, sometimes we want to share that love with someone. Yet the Devil in his ways has created something we come to accept, divorcing them because we didn't fix or work through our problems.

This problems become unsolved and our inner man wants to hate those that did us wrong, to always have grudges, to blame them when it can be forgive and learn from them. Folks we live in a time where forgiven is being removed because we tell ourselves subconscious, conscious, or by looking in the mirror everyday "I. Won't. Forgive." yet when we make mistakes, when we fail, when problems become unsolved why should anyone forgive any one of us? If your answer is because I'm a good person, your wrong. If your answer is because I done good deeds, your wrong. If your answer is because your the one starting it and have made this problems so I won't forgive you unless you forgive me by our human mind thinking, your wrong.

Cause no matter what happen, the circumstance, the situation, who started this or anything. You must be willing to forgive and asked for forgiveness from god and your fellow man(Brothers and Sisters alike). Brothers and sisters, we need to understand that no one can ever be perfect, yet because of what they do to us and how we won't forgive them. Their mistakes are carved into our hearts leading to harden hearts of stone, but in Christ we are given fresh new hearts. One of faith in Christ, trust in his words and plans, the willingness to love not only your friends, family and lovers, but also to those who would harm us, hurt those we care and to forgive them despite what they cause. Remember, your mistakes you cause harm intentional and unintentional has left scars in their hearts.

Now your asking how do we not makes this mistakes, problems or failures? Answer is, you can't. Cause they will continue to happen, but that doesn't mean you stop. You learn from them, grow to understand and mature in your daily walk. Folks when we are given the Holy Spirit, we're not just expected to be on some sidelines where we simply watch others do there part and wait for our time. We are expected to do more, yet in those times of troubles, times of hurts, times of mistakes created, we are to stand up, boldly walk forwards and own our mistakes yet learn from them. God doesn't just made us Christian because we're special, he didn't chose us because we were something greater then others around us. God chose you because he loves us, and those he loves happen to be people you hate, those who committed crimes in this life, those who harm others. Yet by the power of Jesus blood, our sins are wash away. Not just one sin or the next, ALL SINS ARE FORGIVEN! From the past sins, present sins and future sins. If God can forgive us, then we can forgive others and we are forgiven in return. I'm not going to lie, not everyone will forgive and that's okay. Cause no one on earth has the power to wash all sins, only our Lord Jesus Christ has this power and if he can forgive us and wash all our sins, then why are you unwilling to forgive them when you have made the same mistakes and failures just like everyone else?

In our life as believers of Christ, we are always bound to make mistakes. We are always bound to fall in moments or days we shouldn't, but we learn from them and continue to grow in our faith and fellowship with other believers.
