Jim Croce sang the song “Operator” in 1972 and it topped the charts. It was about a friend who took away the love of his life. Some time had passed and he wanted to call, using an old telephone number written on a matchbook. Although he was still not over the betrayal, he was trying to make contact and wish them well.
It’s about a struggle very common to man. Trying to stop the demons of the past from dragging you down when they just don’t want to let go. Working to make amends when emotions are still raw doesn’t seem possible.
It’s not like that with God, and what we’ve done to Him.
Hebrews 10:15-17
And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
“This is the covenant that I will make with them
after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put My laws on their hearts,
and write them on their minds,”
then He adds,
“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”
He can do what is impossible for us. Give it some thought.
