Today, my mind goes to a friend, not a dear friend, just a friend. Seems like mistakes were made a plenty and now we both are in the middle of our lives. Some of the mistakes made are things that will heal with time. Some mistakes are things that just don’t have enough time to heal. God would have to stretch the age and the strength into a span of lifetime that is not even realistic. The bottom line is that some mistakes will just have to be taken to the grave. Those are the kind of mistakes I don’t like. I don’t like the ones that won’t be corrected until the next generation, if the next generation is even mine to ask for. I don’t know about you, but that brings me peace. The old folks used to say, ”It is what it is”. It is alright just to let some wrong things stay wrong. You add to the wrongness of situations when you meddle to make it right without the wisdom and the timing of God. You do more damage trying to change something when it is not time for it to be changed yet your time to be with the unchanged thing has simply run out. I have learned to leave places that are wrong and not worry about what will happen to it. The healing of it is beyond me. Healing it will kill me. I know you want me to stay until things are right, but I can’t. I don’t have time to wait until things are right. It may never be right. My portion on this earth is an appointed time and when my time has come, I will leave and trust your restoration to God who is certainly bigger than I.
