Each moment of our life is spent – for good or for bad. For some reason, it seems that the bad moments have a tendency of sticking to us. Five good things will happen, and we will remember that one bad thing that happened right in the middle of it. That bad moment will try to plant itself within our beings, within our hearts and minds to create bitterness, unforgiveness, deep wounds, and negative thinking.
In order to embrace the present,
we need to let go of the past.
Sometimes this can be fairly easy, but sometimes this is very hard. Words and actions done against us can be very painful. Our battles, struggles, and insufficiencies each day take a toll on us. It may take a lot of work to press forward and try to forget what happened yesterday. Nonetheless, it is required for a victorious life.
I struggle daily to try to let go of the past. Certainly, it molds and shapes the present, yet I do not want it to control my being.
I want to have fresh thoughts and fresh vision for each day.
I want to be free from others’ carelessness and hurtful ways and be able to love them with the grace of God.
I want to have a vibrant, victorious life.
Are you holding on to the past? You may need a miracle, as I do, but God is able.
May we seek our God for His abundant power and grace until we get victory!
2 Corinthians 6:2
…behold, now is the day of salvation.
