How many of us keep looking back at our past? The things we wish we could change especially the pain. I read a slogan the other day that said, "Don't look back, you're not going that way."
When we start thinking about our past where does it take us? I mean really? Why do we keep going back there, to that pain? What is the point? Can we change what happened or a situation? Why would we want to keep going back to that sadness?
"Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old." Isaiah 43:18
No matter what it is we are trying to forget in our past or how long ago it happened, we have to remember if we have asked God to forgive us, then we live knowing that He has and we stand firm in His forgiveness. He freed us from that sin or situation. The Bible tells us when we become a Christian we are a new creation in Jesus Christ. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away: behold all things become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17
We have a new life in Him now so let Him be in control. Stop looking back! We don't live there anymore! Move on and move forward. God has something beautiful planned for each one of us. Don't rob yourself from letting Him bless you.
Love in Christ,
Tera
