Forgive Me

Sometimes we fail to speak the things hidden in our heart. Sometimes that is a very good thing. With Facebook, Twitter, et al, we can speak too quickly.
Yesterday I injured a friend with my "cute" remark. What was normal to me, wasn't normal to her and offense was taken.
Thank God for the delete button and His forgiveness. In fact, God's delete button is more thorough than FB's.
He remembers it no more. He never brings up our past. Repentance makes it null and void.
Sometimes because we don't "see and touch" God, we mutter prayers in our heads, but our heart needs to hear these prayers to help shift from regret to hope.
What do you need to ask God to forgive you for today?Or is it possible you need to ask Him for forgiveness for the times you accused when you thought He failed you?
Just because you don't get the answers you think you need, doesn't mean He failed. It may mean you have some changes to make first or that He has a better plan.
As I put my head on my pillow each night, I review my day and repent for my mistakes.
His mercies are new every morning.
I don't need to take any excess garbage into a new day.
