Everyone of us wrestle with decisions that make us mentally assault ourselves. We say to ourselves…”you idiot, or I hope nobody finds out,” when we make mistakes. But then we go about our daily lives pretending like those things never happen. We have a self-defense mechanism that comes into play called pride. Pride, which really can be defined as “self-love,” in order to protect ourselves, prompts us to blame other people for the mistakes we have made. Until we get to the place that we stop making excuses and defending our decisions, we will never be able to go through the change process. And until we change, we will continue to battle the same issues. But there is hope, for we are overcomers through our faith in Jesus Christ. And we have God’s promise, that if we follow by faith, He will work everything out for our good. Even the mistakes.
