Good things and bad things. They make up our lives! And it’s easy to want to forget about the bad things, especially those mistakes we made that we don’t want anybody else to ever know about.

We can accomplish, some of the time. But, there are some mistakes that are impossible to hide from others. And there is nothing we can ever hide away from God.

While it may seem like a great idea to cover over those dents and scratches from the bodywork of our lives, it may actually pay us to leave them as they are. Not all dents are bad!

A friend lost some fingers in a tragic accident. He has a permanent reminder of something that was bad. And, yet, he looks at his hands and remembers that dark time as, more importantly, the time he chose to follow Jesus. That accident was actually the moment when he found true joy, peace and hope in a relationship with Jesus Christ.

The mistakes in our lives can be hidden or visible. We all have things we do wrong which can be hidden more easily than other things. But don’t be too quick to hide away your struggles – you never know when that thing you struggle with, could be what somebody else needs to know about, so they don’t feel utterly alone.

Just a thought…
