Back to square one? 早知有今日、又何必当初呢

We often say, enjoy the process instead of focusing on the outcome, because the journey is more important that the destination. It is through the journey or process that we get to experience and learn the valuable lessons.

At certain stage in our lives, sometimes we would ask ourselves, did we make a wrong decision? If we took the other alternative way, would the outcome be different? If we did not make any changes, would there be any difference?

Question mark, question mark, question mark. Ultimately, we might say, 早知有今日、又何必当初呢...

Throughout my life, sometimes I would ask myself such a question too; especially when the decision that I made did not prove to be the right one.

However, we cannot go back to the past. Perhaps a better solution is to review the past, and make use of the lessons learnt to move on with life.

I have learnt to be patient and do not rush into decisions. Also, more importantly, is to learn to listen to VOICE of God. This requires a lot of effort to learn to His voice. I believe with the help of the Holy Spirit, I would be able to do it :)

    • Kit Thong From other perspect, if aware what had done is wrong and willing to admit and correct it, it's not bad at all also ... the issue is, would it be another cycle of 早知有今日、又何必当初 later on .....

    • Andrew Tan In all things that happen, God is still there watching and He is still in control. During times like these, sometimes it is best that to BE STILL AND KNOW HE IS GOD. Withdraw into God's embrace and see how He delivers. If He can divide Red Sea, He can divide the RED SEA you are facing now. It may be back to square one, but He is there dividing the Red Sea already.
