Accept the mistakes as a blessing to move forward

Many of us, myself included,live our lives with many regrets. Sometimes our regrets and past mistakes keep us from moving forward. We fear taking the next step in our lives,because of the pains of our past mistakes.

We continue to hold onto the past,knowing full-well,we cannot go back and change what has been done.

In order to heal and move forward,we must understand that growing pains is part of the journey. We all know and heard many times before, that everything happens for a reason--making heart-ranching mistakes is sometimes inevitable. We learn and grow through our mistakes. In order to heal, and set our souls free,we must forgive ourselves. We must be grateful,and thank God for bringing that particular experience in our lives. The best way to heal is to look at all of our blunders and mishaps as tests. Tests and trials we must pass to move to the next level in our lives. Sometimes we have to step out of our comfort zones to learn,sometimes we have to be pushed. Being pushed sometimes means going through mishaps and curve balls that are very painful. All of our past mistakes are gifts from God to shake up our faith, and make us stronger. As long as we hold on to the faith and the word of God, we will be okay.
