I have a future walk for you, on a path that isn’t paved with regrets. Regret is as an gateway leading you on a path that will be destructive for you. I want you walking toward the upward call in My Son on the path that is paved with the cross.

On the pathway leading to My kingdom, you must go through the cross, and as you bring your regrets through the cross, they come out on the other side as promises of redemption. For I will restore the years the locusts have eaten and return what the devil has stolen. I AM your redeemer. I AM your God who teaches you for your benefit, who leads you in the way you should go.

There was no love for you, in the past, because those who were to love you, regretted their sins and couldn’t look on you in love. When they looked at you, they remembered their  failures and hurts. I don’t want you to be like them. I want you to love others through forgiveness and an understanding of the love I have shown you. You are My Redeemed. You are called Cared For, a City Not Deserted. I am doing a new thing now. Do you perceive it? Even now it is springing forth.

Isaiah 43:18,19 Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth: Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
