Get out of your past

"Do not consider what is old. Behold, I do a new thing "Isaiah 43: 18-19

Jerry Lewis was amusing to say that his most beautiful wedding present was the film of the ceremony. When his couple was worse, he could isolate himself in a room, turn the film upside down and stand out as a free man !

It's funny, but you can not go back and rewrite the story. As much as wanting to put a scrambled egg back in its shell. Staying stuck on the past is always at the expense of the future, but learning from the past gives you the means to make this future better. As soon as you say : "If I had known then what I know today," do not forget that unless you evolve, you will say the same thing in ten or twenty years.

You say, "If only I could have forgiven my spouse instead of blaming her, I would probably have saved our marriage. Maybe the memory of an abortion tortures you. You think of this child who could have been there and bring you so much joy. Maybe, despite your good intentions, you have done wrong, even committing a crime. Today you say : "If only ..." Well this is what God says :

1) "Your sins are forgiven by the name of Jesus Christ. "1 John 2:12

2) "I take it upon myself to forgive your revolts and to no longer remember your faults. Isaiah 43:25

3) "Do not remember the first events, and do not consider what is old. Behold, I am doing a new thing, it is now in germ, will you not recognize it ? I will set a path in the wilderness. Isaiah 43: 18-19

Your word for today

Get out of your past.
