Forgiveness means giving up all hope of a better past. – L. Bolling
Jesus said the man ‘looking back’ is not fit for the kingdom of heaven. Hmm!
One of the hardest things for us to accept in life is the fact that we are who we are. We are the sum of all our past experiences, even the bad ones. But we do not have to let those past experiences hold us from future successes and joy. That’s what makes God’s forgiveness so wonderful. He knows our past wasn’t perfect but He loves and accepts us just as though it was. He wants to give us a ‘hope and a future’ that will help us fulfill our purpose and bring glory to Him. We can step out of our past and into TODAY anytime we’re ready. God is expecting us.
Until tomorrow……

“I will be their God, and they will be my people…..declares the Lord….For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sin no more.” – Jeremiah 31:33,34
