A frequent thought might be, If only I had … You are not alone, my friend. Annie, who lost her father, says, “I laid awake at night thinking, O Lord, I wish I had taken him to Duke Hospital. Why didn’t I think about it? I just kept punishing myself. But one of my friends said, ‘You did all you knew to do.’ Which is true.” Do not condemn yourself. Look to Christ Jesus for help in facing these regrets. “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death” (Romans 8:1-2 NASB). Lord Jesus, set me free from my regrets. Thank you for not condemning me. Amen. Through a Season of Grief The daily email messages you are receiving are also available in a book format. Purchase as a gift for a friend or buy a print copy for yourself.
