The refresh button

My love for starting over!
It's easy when you're stuck, just hit the refresh button. Sometimes I head in a direction knowing fully well that I would get stuck and then I hit refresh again. I mean that's why the button is there innit? This is a new me, not doing that again and when I do, well there's the button. For every program that has frozen, that I realize is done the wrong way I refresh. The ever loving refresh helps me start all over. 

But then, "What happens when the refresh button gets stuck?". When you cant even begin to fill a new form because refresh is permanently on. You don't even get to have a chance to start something new, cause every second a refresh is made.
Well, the key has to be disabled and the new form/program/whatever has to work fine. One has to live like the key doesn't exist. It's hard to not use the button but its better to live like you don't know it exists. Cause you might think the key would always work for you, it's going to get broken at some point. Don't abuse the key!

The F5 button inspired this post, it made me realize I try starting a "new life" over and over.

The bible says:
Shall we continue in sin and grace abound? God forbid! (Rom 6:1-2).
His grace is sufficient, yea but now, sinning and asking for forgiveness over and over isn't an option anymore, because we're dead to sin. That's what being born-again is all about, that's what being is disciple is all about. Trying to live a blameless life is the solution. Looking up to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

This doesn't mean that God gets tired of us and repentance isn't going to happen after series of sins. Jesus' died for our sins (no matter how big/small) so salvation is free. So I'm not saying you can get stuck and repentance would not be granted to you, I'm saying, don't sin because you know you can ask for forgiveness after. Thou shall not tempt the Lord thy God (Luke 4:12). At the end of the day, God is God and you lose if you try to outsmart him
