Knowing what you know today, if you could live your life over again, would you change anything? Or another way to put it is , "What did you learn in life"? Is your future really determined by your past?
If I could do it all over again, would I still pick up that bottle? I like to think that it was a part of what molded my life into what it is today, but would I really want to go through all that again? I cringe just thinking about it.
What if I could just skip the drinking part of my life and go right to present day? What a short life that would be. I like who I am today, but could there have been a better me today if my choice was to stay sober? In my mind the answer is yes, but should one ask themselves a question like that because what's done is done and can never be changed.
But what about Jesus?
Here was a man who knew that he was going to be crucified and have excruciating pain brought upon him , and could have done something about it but never did. It's almost like asking Him if he would do it all over again what would He change and then actually doing it over the same way!
My dear friend, Diane, sends me a quote everyday that goes, 'The two greatest days of your life are the day that you were born and the day you find out why '. When Jesus was born into this world as The Son of Man, He already knew why and what He had to do right from the start . Can you imagine Him knowing what He had to go through and still going through it? Just so we might be saved and forgiven of all sin. If you can understand this then you've already found the second greatest day of your life.
Happy Easter
