In some of my recent conversations with people in our church, the subject of regrets has come up. We all have them, and we can't go back and change them, but we can choose to act differently now because of what we have learned through them.
I think that this song written by Rodney Griffin is an excellent prayer for every Christian to pray. Check out this video to hear the song
LIKE I WISH I'D LIVED
May I be so honest, could I share from my heart,
You see, I'm so far from perfect, that today I bear the scars
There is no one here among us, who doesn't live without regret
So may we use the pain behind us to walk in victory up ahead
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
May I stay in the way of the narrow and free of regret
And may I surrender whatever is holding me back
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
Now each day's another journey, with choices I must make
There are two roads before me, but only one that I must take
So help me walk the path that's holy and help me choose what is right
May I leave a testimony that is pleasing in your sight
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
May I stay in the way of the narrow and free of regret
And may I surrender whatever is holding me back
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
And may I surrender whatever is holding me back
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
Lord, help me to live like I wish I'd lived in the past
