Forgetting the Past

...but I focus on this one thing:

Forgetting the past and looking forward

to what lies ahead,

Philippians 3:13

Are you stuck in the past?

Have you allowed past successes

or failures to become your life's focus?

Perhaps you have wondered,

"How can I forget something that's

happened to me?"

One definition of the word "forget"

means "to disregard intentionally

or to overlook."

We must intentionally disregard

our past failures.

When we refuse to let go of the old,

we find ourselves unable to embrace

what God is doing now.

It doesn't matter what has happened

in your history.

It's time to forget what lies behind.

Make the choice today to lay

your past to rest.

Let your yesterday's rest in peace.

Trust in the future that God has

in store for you.

Trust that He is working behind the scenes

on your behalf.

As you press forward, you will move forward

and embrace the life of victory God has

planned for you.

Have a blessed & powerful day!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY:

Heavenly Father, I choose to forget the past.

I don't want anything to hold me back from the future

You have prepared for me.

I choose forgiveness and ask that You help me

by Your Spirit to press forward in every area

of my life. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
