Isaiah 43:18-19
18 “Forget the former
things;
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.

What have you been through? What chapters in your past still plague your
thoughts? We all do it! We focus and recall the painful and uncomfortable
moments. We recall the pain and forget
the lesson. We forget the entry God has
placed in His resume for our lives. We
let our past blind us from seeing the new things God is doing and has
done.
Our past is not our reality. God can and will show up and turn any
situation around. The question is: will you even notice? Will you miss what God is doing? I pray not.
I pray that you leave the pain of the past where it belongs. Look to God and focus on what He is doing fresh
and new in your life. Be encouraged and
know that the past doesn’t matter. Only
the presence of God in your present and the faith you place in Him for your
future should have your focus and attention.
Remember I love you always and in all ways.
Rev M. Harrison
