Hope in Times of Loss
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
The mind is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so.—Romans 8:6–7 (NIV)
Have you ever found yourself playing the game of regret? Do you pace through the past, examining failures and mishaps? When you become caught up in shouldhave thinking, ask God to fill you with His Holy Spirit.
Heavenly Father, guide my mind away from rehashing upsetting situations. Help me see the past as You see it, through eyes of love.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
