I was watching a lecture by Richard Feynman, a renowned scientist, and discovered that everything is irreversible. All atoms in the universe could only move forward and cannot be moved backward. It is the law of physics.
He later reiterated that in a film, you could play a movie in reverse, but in reality, it’s impossible to put every atom in reverse and turn back the clock so to speak. Again, you can only move forward not backward.
This made me ponder about what we do in life. That in every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, or you reap what you sow as told in the scriptures. That is God’s law. Therefore, in every action that we do, we must be careful. We don’t know everything, but only God is Omniscient. That’s why we can only rely on God in everything in every atom that causes our relationships with family, friends, and others.
Time is irreversible. We cannot undo our past mistakes. But, what we can do is ask God for repentance and let God fix the errors that we made. Yes, it is hard for someone to correct things that have happened. However, God is all Sovereign. If we don’t ask God then we don’t receive His correction.
“Do not deceive yourselves; no one makes a fool of God. You will reap exactly what you plant. If you plant in the field of your natural desires, from it you will gather the harvest of death; if you plant in the field of the Spirit, from the Spirit you will gather the harvest of eternal life. So let us not become tired of doing good; for if we do not give up, the time will come when we will reap the harvest.”
Galatians 6:7-9
