Be Free

(03/10/09)

What does your past look like?  Well, for some of us it’s full of pain and regrets.  For some of us we see the past as the best part of our lives: our “glory days” as it were.  Some of us choose to forget our past and keep moving, never dealing with whatever pain has ensued.  Some of us live there, never wanting to move on.  Either way is a trap.  Either way we are letting the past control us.  There is a third alternative.  Give it to God.  He knows exactly what to do with it.  Sometimes He may have us leave it in the “sea of forgetfulness” so that we can move on to new and greater things.  Other times He may heal us from it and then have us use it for the healing of others.  Either way, God wants to use it for His glory.  So give it up, turn it loose, let it go… be free.
