If only...
"He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea"
Micah 7:19
Do you ever let the "if only" questions of the past rob you of present peace and victorious days?
Many are the times that I've looked back and then slid down the hill of despair. "If only I hadn't..." "If only I had.."! My, how often the enemy has caused havoc in my day by taking me on a tour of my past failures!
Our enemy wants us to forget that our loving Father, when we lay our past at his feet, casts it all into the sea of forgetfulness.
What a wonderful thought! Our sins will be remembered no more! So, let us fix our eyes on Jesus. When the enemy starts the slideshow of your past, turn your eyes upon Jesus! If HE has tossed it and forgotten it, we need to follow His example. Quit letting your past rob today of its joy and impact for the Kingdom.
"Deem not the irrevocable past as wholly wasted, wholly vain, if, rising on it's wrecks, at last to something nobler we attain"
~Longfellow~
It's a new day!
May you seek His face before
you face any other today!
