"When a person first sins," Chip Ingram writes in Holy Transformation, "there may be a short-lived thrill, but there also enters into the heart remorse and regret. But if the person continues in sin, there comes a time when he loses all sensation and can do the most shameful things without feeling at all. His conscience has become petrified."
May I offer you a word of encouragement?
While you can't go back and undo the past or avoid its consequences, you can make choices today that will improve your future. Even if you are living out consequences not entirely of your own making.
