“Beloved, I do not consider that I have made it my own; but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 3:13-14 (NRSV) Sometimes it seems like when you are trying to move forward, past experiences and / or behaviors, begin to plague your thoughts, causing you to doubt your purpose and call. I declare today. When those images come to your mind and begin to speak negative words that try to make you feel unworthy, talk back and say, you are no longer significant and you are certainly not greater than what lies ahead of me or who dwells within me. Don’t let your mind remain hitched on things that weigh you down or take you backwards. What’s behind you, is behind you. It is no longer in your view, except for when you look back. Don’t willingly take yourself in the opposite direction of where you should be going. This week meditate on this verse and examine everything in your past that tries to keep you bound. Know that God has set you free and has set a brighter path before you. Stay focused and forge ahead. Let’s go and grow together! ADaubon
