I'm Leaving My Past Behind!

All to often,when we feel we have in fact turned our list of grievances and offenses over to Jesus, we take the whole list back and add to it! We need to resist the urge and cry out to God to help us to surrender! Let us examine ourselves so we will be able to see clearly, then we can change things.I'm leaving my past behind! what troublous times we live in today! I heard that there will be terrible times in the last days! When all is said and done, resulting in wrong choices. Such is the cyclical history of mankind. Human nature is largely made up of vanity, jealousy, lust and greed. Who can understand it? I can't. The work of the flesh and the fruit of the spirit are listed in detail in Galatians 5:19-22 Read them at your leisure, Without God's forgiving, spirit, it seems that, knowingly or unknowingly, most folks make up mental "list" of real or imagined offences, objections, likes, dislikes, and even hatreds. Perceptions rule! Misperceptions color our feelings. And feelings, in turn, effect behavior. That's the way the carnal mind works. When an individual continuously dwells upon, deliberates, and stews over these lists of real or perceived injustices, they become magnified out of all proportion until they finally dominate his or her thoughts. Sleepless nights,worry, distrust, frustration, anger, and retribution are usaully the result Millions of people spend billions of dollars annually on doctors and prescription drugs just because they cannot let go of the past and face a new tomorrow. Going over and over lists of accumulated offences can lead to destructive root of bitterness. It's hard to forgive an alleged offender. But we need to foce ourselves so that we may have a peace of mind of our own. If you forgive man when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. How can we ask God for forgiveness when we don't want to forgive man? We all have a journey ahead. And the goal of our life's journey should be to win the prize. The kingdom of God! Anyone who enters a contest of any sort does so with the goal of winning. In the "game of life" our goal should be the same-to win the prize at the end of the race! Those who run in a marathon race muct sometimes scrifice blood,sweat and tears. But prize- eternal life in the Kingdom of God! So it is well worth it! If we are going to press on to obtain the prize,we're going to have to turn our backs on the past and leave some things behind. Let us throw off everything that hinders us. Think about it. We have been carrying around old baggage because of a past event! The time you spend being depress,is the time could have been smiling and feeling good about yourself. Your breathing right? Be thankful of that!
