I believe the sense of lost opportunity is rooted in a faulty understanding of God's grace. Likewise, when grace is grasped and embraced, the Land of Opportunity becomes yours again.

When we feel that old spirit of complaining start to bubble up in our hearts, we need to remind ourselves to take time to thank God for His blessings.

God is no further from you on your worst day than He is on your best day. Just open your heart to receive Him and His love.

Jesus Himself stresses that only those who grant forgiveness will receive it.

Picking up our Bibles, we should give God our full attention, withhold our opinion until we understand what He is saying, listen without interrupting, and respond with understanding and obedience.

God has given us everything we need for life and godliness. And he's given us the indwelling strength and guidance of the Holy Spirit. The rest is up to us.

We are reflectors, and as reflectors we have one duty and that is to stay clean or we won't reflect Jesus.
