The two undeniable signs of a Christian is someone who is giving and forgiving. Yet many have a hard time receiving God's grace to forgive themselves and forget the past. The apostle Paul said "This one thing I do, forgetting those things that are behind and reaching forth unto those things that are in front of and before me" (Philippians 3:13).
Growing in God's grace means we get what is behind us mentally and emotionally behind us, discarding and dropping old baggage and weights within.
We who believe and receive Christ are now under His atoning and cleansing blood, being free to live above the guilt and regrets of the past to persevere onward into divine purposes and eternal fruitfulness that lasts!
Like your butt, your past is behind you and your eyes are in front of you. Now go forward and get busy working on your future.
It's hard to go forward when you are bound to a memory and continually looking in the rear view mirror.
Lift up your eyes for new horizons in God.
Receive God's unconditional love and forgiveness to forgive yourself and move beyond your past to treasure your present and pursue your future.
Blessings and breakthroughs!
Paul
