The devil uses regret in your past and fear for your future. Have you ever heard of the word condemnation? It means self guilt. There is no condemnation in salvation or in your walk with Christ. When you ask for forgiveness, it is done. Anything that is holding you in the past is you. God has said it is done. Self guilt is one of the hardest things people have to let go. It makes you feel you are not worthy or that you wasted so much of your time. It makes you have regrets and that is not of God. I say whenever you are saved, is better late than never. My Dad was saved in his 70's. I mean whether you are saved or recently rededicated your life and faith, it is then that you must let go and let God. The past is left there and you are to entrust the future to the Lord. Don't fear the future, entrust your future. The Lord wants us to rest in his presence today. Give the day to Him when you first wake up and ask Him to be with you as you walk through your day and He will be. A significant amount of risk is involved in trusting God. Risk is part of the very nature of faith (I read that on my calendar and found it thought provoking). That "risk" is what prevents people's minds from letting go and trusting. It is scary and I understand so whatever you do, think about it and pray about it and I believe wonderous things will happen. Be blessed!
Hebrews 11:6
