One thing I do; Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. Philippians 3:13-15 NIV
Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some Charles Dickens
Leave your troubles behind with the Lord, and he will defend you; He never lets honest people be defeated. PSALMS 55:22 GNT
Trust the past to God's mercy, the present to God's love, and the future to God's providence Saint Augustine of Hippo
Remember...
* God can use your past as a wise teacher for your present and future * Not a day goes by when God isn't doing a new thing in your life * God is strong enough to carry your emotional baggage. *Take a lesson from Paul and choose joy over regret
Simplify...
*Make the first move to talk things out when relational problems * Hand your problems to God every evening before you go to sleep * Throw out any memorabilia that brings to mind negative situations *Consult a counselor to help unpack traumatic emotional baggage such as abuse or grief. *Forgiveness not only blesses the lives of those you forgive, but also lightens your own emotional load
My Reflection: My devotion that I received last day and today was the Lord taught me to learn how to forget my past and forgive yung mga taong nanakit sa akin. Because past can destroys my present and future plans. I know it was difficult for me to unpack my bags but i think that He will help me. I think He will not made myself in a hurry to unpack it, He just want it slow it down para hindi ako mahihirapan.
Last time, I shared here about the incident happened last day. I feel so sorry because I decided to cut my connection between the two of us ( kasi that was his fault naman and he forced me to do it). This was the advices that I received from my loved ones and close friends a while ago. But I believe the Lord will defend me on my decision for I was totally hurt and insulted. Because it is already final at hindi magbabago ang desisyon ko. In my opinion, para din sa ikabubuti namin ang naging desisyon ko. I already asked His Forgiveness and I am already forgiven
What I am feeling right now after this?
I must say I felt relief, The devotion that I received helped me to move on and enjoy what lies beneath
Don't let yesterday take up too much of today
