Soul Mitigation
- While this quote is true and needed, what can we do to mitigate this usual course of life?
- Can we lessen the regrets?
- How can we reach into our pasts, be restored & renewed, then meaningfully connect with our present & the present lives of people who are now in those wrenching years of choices that affect so much?
As we watch the younger lives around us and shake our heads at the world they’re encountering, what are ways we can enter compassionately, engage graciously, and influence effectively so they want to hear us? (I’m hearing of unique invitations into hearts and lives that some of you are stepping up to!)
God has us & them in this world for such a time as this. It is not a surprise to him that things are falling apart! Esther’s world was looking pretty grim when she realized she had to stand wisely, strategically with winsome words & deeds. And God miraculously turned things around so her people were not destroyed as plotted. (Esther 8:7,8)
“Sorrow had a purpose but it’s time to stand…” Need to Breathe – Into the Mystery
“The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, to turn aside from the snares of death.”
Proverbs 13:14
