I Told You So

I don’t think any of us want to hear the words “I told you so” when we have errored. We may have been warned by someone not to do something a certain way or at all for that matter, but we did it anyway and it ended up a mistake. Perhaps that “someone” feels they need to remind us of our gaffe to drive point home and say those words we don’t want to hear…”I told you so”.  Whatever the reason, we don’t need to hear it.  We already know we flubbed.

We may continue to be reminded of these words for some time to come by our family or friends, but we are very blessed to never hear them from our Lord. He is not “I told you so” kind of God.

He’s a:

Come here and I will keep you safe and I’ll keep you warm,
Let me hold you and let me heal you,
I love you and I have so much for you,
I am not mad at you,
Trust me as I will never leave you, my grace will never run out, stay with me KIND OF GOD!

Romans 8:35 “Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love?  Does it mean He no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or ae persecuted, or hungry, or in danger, or threatened with doubt?  No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through God’s love.”

Aren’t we fortunate God forgives us our mistakes, big and small. His unconditional love provides us the way of redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ who suffered and died for us on the cross so we may be saved if we believe and give our life to Him.
