disappointments
Forget the former things

Many of us today are still living in the past. We tend to dwell on our past lives, past mistakes, disappointments, past relationships that went bad, awful experiences etc. The burden of these past occurrences tend to weigh us down thus making us bitter to the extent that it affects our future and present lives as well as our attitudes towards people.Irrespective of what has happened to us in the past, we have to move on to the next level. Develop better instead of bitter ways of lives.
God wants us to do away with our past experiences for Him to do new things in our lives. In Isaiah 43; 18-19 God says “Forget the former things do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing. Now it springs up, do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the waste land.” This is God speaking to you and I. Though it is not that easy to remove ugly incidences from our minds, yet God says to forget everything and concentrate on the new things He is doing. He has the power to replenish that which the cankerworm of bitter experiences has eaten so, why won’t we listen and do as God says? God is ever Faithful and HIS WORDS CANNOT RETURN BACK TO HIM EMPTY WITHOUT ACCOMPLISHING THAT WHICH IT IS MEANT TO DO. As we Listen and yield to His Words, He will surely do more than just a new thing but new things in our lives in Jesus Name, Amen.
