Scenario 1
Why didn’t I spend more time with her/him? I was SO impatient, unloving and selfish. Now I sit with this enormous burden of debt and mountain of self-blame!
Jesus invites: come to Me
(Matt 11:28-19, Isaiah 1:18, 1 John 1 : 7-9)
Scenario 2
Everyone needs to go down this road. Jesus is the bridge over which we MUST walk to reach the Father (John 14:6) to eternal life.
It is their wish to go to the Father and ask for mercy.
It is gnawing at the core of my being to see them suffer like this on a daily basis; constantly in pain and discomfort. They are starving themselves to a point where they are only a skeleton covered with skin, lying on the sickbed. It becomes a burden of guilt that rests on me and I feel like running away, because they became my problem in a time when I can’t even keep my own head above water. I rush to work early in the morning and drive back home with a heavy heart because I just can’t handle it anymore.
