So why do we worry so much about our mistakes? Sometimes I feel my life is consumed with wondering if when I make a mistake, what all the consequences will be. Then before I know it I'm stuck in the valley of indecision shaking with fear and wondering what the point of life is! I spoke to a friend earlier who had been thinking about joining a worship team at her church. She'd prayed about it, stressed about it, examined her heart to check her motives, thought all the thoughts that other people might think about her if she did it and finally came to the conclusion that she perhaps couldn't do it because she might make a mistake. I told her something that God had revealed to me recently - every time we make a mistake and fret over it God says 'oh sorry didn't realise you'd made a mistake, I was too busy looking into your eyes'! God is so taken with our beauty that He doesn't have time to pick us apart the way we do ourselves. I need that truth to find it's way into my heart and make a home there because that is where I want to live....
