LIVING IN THE NOW AND NOT THE PAST

” HE WHO OVERCOMES WILL INHERIT THESE THINGS, AND I WILL BE HIS GOD AND HE WILL BE MY SON. ” REVELATION 21:7

I believe that we all find ourselves revisiting the past. We like to look at pictures from years ago and relive the good old days. We like to remember what was or what could have been. It is important, that as we get older, we don’t find ourselves actually living in the past. As I was reading through scripture this morning the Lord reminded me that I am not to be living in yesterday’s world. But instead I am to be looking at today. I am not to look at days gone by and what I once was. Instead, I am to prepare and move forward in what God has planned for me now. We are all prepared for this moment in time. We are to live our lives one day at a time. We are to be prepared and stay prepared in the moment, in the moment that our Lord needs our faith and trust. We cannot be overcomers of our challenges in this day and age if we are living in the past. We must be in the present and live our lives in the present. We can always revisit the past but never relive it. So, let us all live in the time that our God has created us for, the present. Our God has a plan and we are all a part of that plan. We are to be overcomers in Christ! Let us all continue to build upon our faith and trust our Lord in all of his glory and grace. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
