Thought for the day on looking ahead and forgetting those things which are behind.
For me it won't be hard to put 2013 behind me, it was not my easiest year. Sometimes in order to move on in life we need to let go of the things of the past. Let's not bring past baggage with us as we press towards a closer relationship with God. Let us put behind the things that are holding us back where they have become idols in our lives and taken pre-eminence over God. Some of us have to repent of making money, or our own selfish ambitions our focus rather than God. This is our chance to start a new year in a fresh Godly manner and decide to serve God with all our hearts.
Philippians 3 v 13 & 14:Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
