The Undo Button in our Lives

Picture yourself in this situation. Its 1am and you hope to go to bed by 2am. You're typing a 5 page paper about what Hotdogs are made out of and you're about to finish. But when you try to change the font size/spell check and you accidentally push the wrong button, all your work is gone within seconds.......!

Two days ago i was in this situation. It was 2am and i had a paper due that same day at 8. I was about finished when i accidentally pushed the wrong button and all my work was gone. I thought i was going to freak out but than i remembered the Undo Button! Once i undid my mistake i yelled (waking my roommate in the process) "THANK GOD FOR THE UNDO BUTTON!" Than it hit me, what if we had a undo button in our lives. Whenever we made a mistake or been hurt by someone we could just push the undo button and the pain/disappointment would just disappear, never to had happen. Life would be so much easier. But when you think about it, we sort of have an undo button already. That undo button is God. Notice how i said God is "sort of" like an undo button. The reason why is when something happens that we would like to undo we cant just call upon the Lord and ask him to rewind what just happened and everything goes back to being perfect, it doesn't work that way. God is a different kind of undo button. At those moments when everything is going wrong, when you feel broken and torn, God is there. All u have to do is ask him for his healing/forgiveness and He will take that pain/disappointment away and stand you up straight on the right path. That's why he died on the cross, to take away the sin in our lives. Those moments will stay with you (they aren't fully erase) but God will heal you and help u move on and grow.
