Clean and New

So I received and email from an old aquaintence of my childhood. Anytime that you reconnect with people, unexpectedly things that you long forgot about resurface, not so much with words on purpose, but with memories and names not lost, only buried. I spent that night holding my children, praying as I drifted to sleep to not remeber my past and the mistakes, horrible stupid mistakes that I have made of this journey called life. Just like Jen says, our Heavenly Father always knows exactly what we need... As I prayed, my eyes closed, a bright white flashed in my mind, pleasant, happy peaceful and comforting, and I FELT him say - not with spoken words, but with a spirit "I forgave you long ago, you've been cleaned, do not worry about those times, they're all over, washed away" I fell right asleep, I knew that I didn't have to have regrets every again

Powerful...

Ohh Donna.. I am so glad you were listing to our Heavenly Father... I hate when satin puts self doubts into our minds... He is so tricky like that..

I want you to always remember that the past is the past as long as you have repented I mean truly repented you have nothing to worry about. It is like your slate has been wiped clean.
That is the amazing power of the atonement of our savior jesus Christ That was his purpose for coming her to take upon the sins of the world .
He has made it possible true his death that we are able to repent for our sins and mistake...
we all have past some more colorful than others. I know i certainly would never want to be judged for my past.
But I am grateful for my past the good the Bad and the ugly parts of it. I have learned from my past mistakes and because I learned from them with out continuously repeating them I know I am a better person.
I feel that I am a little more understanding and tolerant of other people when the make mistakes because I know what it it is like to have made them. I also Know the healing power of our savior Jesus Christ because of those mistake...
I am so Glad you had that moment with our Heavenly Father it just proves that he knows each of us as an individual and that he loves each of us and that he wants us to be truly happy in this earth life.
Hugs I love ya Girl...
