Past, Present and Future

Past, Present and Future - Part 2

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, Philippians 3:13

We all have a past but we shouldn't let our past define who we are or what we should be. How do one forget the former things? How do one let go of the past? It's by looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. The best way to let go of the past is to focus on the future. Enjoy your present. Live the moment. The past is the past, you can't do anything about it.

Apostle Paul said he advance forward by forgetting those things that are behind. wife was so engrossed with her past that she find it difficult to adjust to the new reality of them leaving their abode.

Progress will be slow and growth will be stunted if you are engrossed on the past. God said the Glory of the latter days shall be greater than the beginning. The Past is your teacher, the present is your exam and the future is your reward; learn from the past, be wise in your present and enjoy your blissful future.

For a believer, there is a glorious future for you. God want a bright ending for us all.

It's a blessed day. Good Mornings and do have a wonderful weekend. L
