Philippians 3:13 (NKJV) 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“Don\u2019t look back” was a word that I got the other day while I was praying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is not an easy word.<\/p>\n

It is so hard sometimes to not want to revisit those places and things that once brought us joy and comfort. We just love familiarity.<\/p>\n

We humans love the things we are used to having or doing. We often reach for them to find comfort.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The neat thing about God is that He knows what is best for us. And knowing that will help us to reach forward to take bigger steps than we ever thought we would take.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Don\u2019t look back is not hard to understand, but it is hard\u00a0to do.<\/p>\n

When we look back and remember how things were, it gives us a false sense of comfort. It will only last for a short time.<\/p>\n

When we realize we are not there anymore, we fall back into a deeper sadness, and even depression if we are not careful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This word today, “don\u2019t look back”, is for our own good.<\/p>\n

God has a place for us. And when we let go and allow Him to show us, we will dance, sing and shout in such great victory!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Hopefully we will listen today and stop going back to the past, and focus on what is ahead of us. We will be amazed if we trust Him and give Him full freedom in our lives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Forget the things behind us and reach forward with everything in us. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
