Your Past, Is Your Past, Let It Go

Good Morning!! God loves us so much, that he gives us the freedom to make choices,...even bad ones. Some are of little consequence, while others can be life-changing. Our freedom of choice dates back to Adam and Eve. They made a bad choice, and sin entered the realm of mankind. The freedom to make choices, also brings responsibility. But, the good news is that no matter what poor choices we may have made in the past, there is always hope for a better future. God knew that we would make some bad choices, but he loves us so much that he sent Jesus to pay the price for our sin, and to provide a way that our relationship to Him can be restored. Some people go through life carrying the load of some wrong choices they've made, in the past. They believe they've messed up so badly that nothing good can ever come of their lives. If you've ever felt this way, or no someone else that might,...there is Good News! For anyone that want to be set free from the past,...Jesus is the answer.

Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.—Philippians 3:13,14 (NIV)

Jesus is the answer. He has already paid the price for your sin ... for every wrong choice you've ever made. Talk to him. Ask him to forgive you and to help you make better choices from now on. He's ready and he's more than able. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.(1 John 1:9 NIV) Remember, we are very special to God. He loves us no matter what we've done,...He's always there for us. He wants us to put the past behind, so that we can become all that He has designed us to be.

We must learn to ask for God's forgiveness,...learn from our mistakes,...and start looking forward to a future filled with hope.

Thank You Lord, for forgiving our sins. We know that we've made so many wrong choices. Help us now to put them behind us. Help us to Let It Go,...to look and move forward, to the future You have planned for us,...one filled with hope.  Amen.
