Forgetting Forward
To be efficient, happy, and to gain control over your life, while moving forward, you must learn how to forget! In dealing with people, we discover their problems center on a few areas. They are fear, guilt, selfishness, self-centeredness and the inability to forget.
If we don't learn how to forget, we will soon have the burden of regret, which deteriorates us.
So how can we develop forgetting? In Philippians 3:13-14 Paul said, "this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind..." First, simply determine to forget, look at the past and say forget it! Then reach out towards those things that lie ahead. The best is yet to come, the future is bright, walk towards the sun, not away from it.
If God is for you (and He is) who can be against you?
Consider asking God to show you what things might be holding you back from His best as you follow this week's Action Step.
