Move Forward!
Some people are still trying to live back in the “good ol’ days,” back when their lives were “so much better.” They think about it on a regular basis and relive a happier time without all the stress or hardships that they face now.
We may have some happy memories of a time gone by, but that time is still in the past. God or bad, happy or sad, it is still in the past and there is nothing you can do to change it. And you certainly cannot take a time machine and go back there!
So why live your life in the past!
Yes, there are disappointments in life, some small, and some not so small. Of course, there may be circumstances that you have to deal with as the result of something that has happened in the past. Take care of those, but then be determined to move forward.
But, if you are going to move forward with your life, you have to put your eyes on what is ahead. Can you imagine driving your car and putting most of your focus on what is behind you!
Stop dwelling on the past. Stop reliving it over and over and over. Stop talking about it. It is over with and there is nothing that can change what has happened in the past.
The Bible talks about forgetting those things which are in the past. That means that it is a freewill choice to let go of the past. We can choose to look forward or to look backward.
If you want to move forward with your life, then stop looking back, ask for God’s help, and keep looking and moving forward.
Choose to have a great day!
