A sum can be put right: but only by going back till you find the error and working it afresh from that point, never by simply going on. Evil can be undone, but it cannot ‘develop’ into good. Time does not heal it.”<br /><br />I knew that line; “time heals all wounds” was a lie!<br /><br />How much time passed before I realized that sitting and waiting for my life to change was not only a waste of time, but was bringing me closer to death? Somewhere along the road, I realized I had to go back, find the evil that put me on that road and start the ‘treatment’ there, before healing could take place. I had to fight for my eternal life! And if I chose to put my head in the sand and pretend ‘it’s all good’, I would be terminal.<br /><br />If I want to be victorious, I can’t be a bystander and wait to float in on the coattails of the warriors. I have to get my hands dirty, maybe even bloody if I want to win the war for the life of my eternal soul.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439331035718369167.post-37651132481672703632010-09-25T12:58:35.880-05:002010-09-25T12:58:35.880-05:00Love it Father!
